*2 months later - July*

India (Dee) POV:

I am soooo nervecited. And if you don't know what that is, it's nervous and excited. It's finally here! Been waiting on this day forever. I just got dressed and it starts any minute now. I need at least two shots lol

Mariah: "Calm down, Dee. Breath, hon"

Me: "You never mentioned this would be part of it, Mrs. A"

Mariah: "*laughs* I'm sorry. Didn't know I was supposed ta mention it. But you'll stop spazzin' when you get up there on dat alter. Trust me. I know from experience..."

Me: "What did you do on your wedding day?"

Mariah: "Cried. Cried. And cried"

I just laughed

Mariah: "You'll be fine" She said laughing "Once you see him, you'll fa'get dat chu were even nervous. I promise"

Then somebody knocked

Me: "Come in"

Mr. A poked his head in

August: "Since I was umm...bullied by my mama into comin' by hea'. It's time"

He winked at Mrs. A and she smiled. When the door closed, I looked at her

Me: "I seen that"

Mariah: "I'll see you when you walk down dat aisle"

While I was waiting...I heard the pastor say rise for the bride. That's how I knew it was official. While I was walking down the aisle, I couldn't do anything but drop some tears lol. When I got to the alter, Aug grabbed my hand and helped me up

Pastor: "We have come together at the invitation of India Carter and August Alsina III to celebrate the uniting in Christian love, their hearts and lives. This is possible because of the love God has created in them, through Jesus Christ. Jesus said, "I am come that they might have life and that they might have it more abundantly." This abundant life, for many people, is an impossible dream, yet God wants us all to have this abundant life and proved His love for us by giving His Son, that we might have this life. Another way that God provides for this "full" life is creating those who will love us. August has found such a one in India hearts and spirits were drawn together before today by the Lord of all creation. Two lives are not united by ceremony, but only in the power, love, and grace of God. August and India are here to publicly declare that because of Jesus Christ's love, they too can truly love one another. As God demonstrated His love in Jesus, our Lord, August and India will demonstrate this God given love by giving themselves to one another and one for the other. They have not reached this place alone, each has been given life by their parents. These, who gave to them life love, provision, are and will be, a vital part in their continued lives. Their love has borne fruit in August and India. Love and respect for these will continue as they grow in their own love made possible by their parents"

Then Mr. A and my mom stand up

Pastor: "Who then has prepared this woman for marriage to this man?

(S/N: Imma give her mom a randon name)

August/Shaniece: "We do"

My dad was never there, so it meant a lot to me that he offered to do this
