The weekend, my unfortunate wedding came so quickly that I didn't even have time to prepare mentally. I'm trying to get it into my head that this is not a marriage, but just a business one. I thought I would be much stronger, but it is impossible. Everything I wanted, everything fell into the water. Not to mention the threats I receive day and night from the madwoman Barbara.
My friends Teresa and Rosa were very shocked and surprised by the news they heard, but now they are used to it and helped me in everything, but that is not what I want, although they are convinced that everything will be fine and that I actually i like Damien, I will never believe that. When you love someone, you don't try to humiliate them and force them to do something they don't want. Besides, I don't even want to be with him.
"Are you ready my love?" Mom's love. I don't believe she's telling me that.
"You don't have to be sweet-talking. You lost my trust the day you just handed me over and let someone else decide my life. Did you get married by force, and now you want me to live it just like you, I don't understand?" I didn't expect it, but she embarrassed me in front of my friends and staff. She slapped me. She... this is just some bad dream.
"You don't know anything about life and the environment you live in. Once you find out, you'll understand all this. You're still very immature, even though you say you're grown up enough. I'm your mother and you'll respect me, whatever our decision may be, is taht clear?" I will not surrender to him. Never.
"I asked you if it was clear!?" My mother shouted at me, but everyone around me was scared.
"It's clear." She just left my room.
Isabella, you are not weak, you are much stronger than you think.
The time came, and everyone gathered in the church. I thought it would just be a wedding at the registrar's, but now we are connected to God, and that is already something much more serious. They really took everything seriously.
"Thank you for all of you gathered on this wonderful day, where two young people will take a step towards the future and the most important one, which is the community. If you are ready, we can start." The priest said.
I feel like I'm going to throw up at any moment.
"Before I ask, is there anyone who objects to this marriage?" The priest asked.
"There is. I object. This disgusting person called Isabella kidnapped my boyfriend. He is my boyfriend!" I just needed her.
I wanted to tell that she can come on my place but Damien's look was enough to stay still.
Silence fell in the entire church. All my relatives turned towards her, and I honestly don't see what they did, but Barbara ran away in a second.
"You may continue." Damien said to the priest who was looking frantically at all the people.
"Damien Altimari, do you take Isabella Lombardi as your beloved wife, to keep and love her, until death do you part?" Say no. Say no.
Please just one big NO.
"I do." He answered and put the ring on my finger.
"Isabella Lombardi, do you take Damien Altimari as your beloved husband, to cherish and love him, until death do you part?" I'm going to throw up.
I can't do this. I can't surrender to this.
"I do." I put the ring on his finger and just waited for the last thing the priest would say.
"You can kiss the bride." No!
I thought I was going to cry from the pain in my heart when he started to approach me. I squeezed my eyes tightly, waiting for his kiss, but I felt a gentle kiss on my forehead. I looked at him when I heard the clapping and shouts of our friends and relatives.
