As the wedding day drew nearer, emotions ran high, and the anticipation weighed heavily on me. Both Volcov and Luka had been consumed with work, leaving me feeling increasingly isolated.
I stood in the backyard, observing the wedding planner meticulously arranging the decorations, with Susan and Sarah by my side.
"It looks wonderful," Volcov remarked, his voice tinged with pride as he surveyed the scene.
"Thanks," I replied, a hint of sadness coloring my tone. "I miss Luka."
"He'll be here soon, don't worry," Volcov assured me, his words offering a small glimmer of hope amidst the chaos.
With renewed determination, we threw ourselves into the preparations, pouring our hearts and souls into every detail. Luka eventually joined us during the wine and cake tasting, his presence a welcome relief from the solitude I had grown accustomed to.
"Here you are, simply chocolate or lava cake?" the woman asked, presenting us with two decadent desserts.
I hesitated for a moment, my mind racing with thoughts and emotions, before finally selecting a slice of lava cake. Luka followed suit, his actions mirroring my own as we indulged in a moment of sweetness amidst the chaos of wedding planning.
"Oh, I love the lava cake," I exclaimed, savoring the rich, decadent dessert.
"Me too," Luka replied in a deep, weary voice. I glanced at him, really taking in his appearance.
He looked tired—exhausted, even, with dark circles under his eyes and lines etched into his face from long hours of work and stress.
"Now that's decided, let's move on to the wine," he said, his tone strained but determined.
As the wedding day arrived, I walked down the aisle, my heart pounding with a mixture of excitement and nervousness. Luka stood at the end, his eyes locking with mine in a silent exchange of love and reassurance.
It truly was a dream—a culmination of months of planning and anticipation, a testament to our love and commitment to each other despite the challenges we had faced along the way.
