As i walked down the aisle surrounded by the people i loved the most, i knew then i was making the right choice.
My father held my hand tight as if he didnt wanna let me go for the second time.
"dont let this be another mistake" he said into my ear. I was beginning to feel nervous and strange on the inside but i tried to not let it show.

When we got to where kenny was standing he let go of my hand. And i began to get emotional.
The priest began talking and all i could think about was if i was about to make one of the biggest mistakes of my life.
I looked into kenny's eyes and i began to wonder off into a whole knew world.

I'd see me and keri happily married. I'd see the process of me giving birth to my beautiful boys. I'd see me and baby in the studio recording " give you my heart" . and then i'd see us falling apart. I began to cry.
As i snapped back into reality...
"Toni are you ok?" He asked. Im fine.
I knew he wanted to spend the rest of his life with me,but i wasnt sure if i wanted the same.
As the priest said his last words before we say "I do" i squeezed his hands tightly and he gave me a concerned look.

Kennoth babyface Edmonds,do you take Toni michelle Braxton to be your wedded wife, to live together in marriage? Do you promise to love her, comfort her, honor and keep her for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and health, and forsaking all others, be faithful only to her, for as long as you both shall live?

I do,he said.

I began to cry. not because i was happy or sad, but because i knew the answer i had to say was no. I looked at him and he smiled. Then i looked at my mom and she smiled.
Then i thought about myself and I wasn't happy.

Toni? Said the priest.

I-I-I...-my water just broke
Yelled Tamar interupting me.
