Jemmy's POV

"God! I hate it! This isn't fitting me" I yelled in frustration. "Woah, calm down. It's not a big deal. I'll fix it" Merissa, my friend who had agreed to get me ready for the wedding said.

"I pity Merissa. She is having to bear your whole lot of tantrums" Rohan said coming out of nowhere. Merissa laughed shaking her head. "Shut up! Just get your ass out of the room!" I yelled and threw a pillow at him.

"Hey! don't kill me!" he said and smirked. "I will if you don't leave right now!" I replied. "Okay okay relax I'm going, monkey" he mocked and left.

I was deadly nervous as its my wedding today. "This is not happening" Merissa said frowning. "What? Don't tell me that it isn't fixing?" I asked.

She nodded pity fully. "Arrrgh... What do I do now? I wish mom was here" I said almost in the verge of tears.

"Hey! I'm here don't worry" Sanjana aunty said coming inside the room. "Auntie" I sighed.

She fixed my wedding dress and showed it to me. "Look it's done. Cheer up now! You look great!" she said.

"Thank you so much" I said and hugged her tight. "Never mention. It's just a little bit of return for what your mom had done for me" she replied and kissed my forehead.

"and I'm always there okay?" she told me. I nodded and smiled. "Okay! Get ready now! It's your time. Hold on your breath, close your eyes and go into the beautiful dream of falling in love. Jake is a great man, I know he'll always put you first" she told me. I nodded excitedly. Even though I didn't know how mom would react this day, but maybe I got an idea of it at least, by seeing Sanjana aunty. Maybe even mom would teach me and advice me what to do.

She was about to go when I held her hand "Aunty I never mentioned to you, but I see my mom in you. It's like everything you do, I see her. The way you care, the way you love, the way you advice. Thank you" I said. Tears of happiness rolled down her eyes.

She sniffled and hugged me just like mom used to. "I love you, Jem" she told me. "I know mom" I whispered near her ear.

She broke the hug and looked at me. "erm... I'm sorry" I apologized for calling her mom. "It's okay, I didn't mind" she said softly rubbing my cheeks with her thumb.

"Can you be my mom, then?" I asked her. "you know that I'm" she replied.

"No, I meant can you be my real mom? Can you marry dad?" I asked her. She looked a little taken aback by the question.

"I can't marry your father" she said and let go of me. "But I don't see why not? You love him right? You've always loved him. Why don't you marry him?" I asked her.

"Because he won't. He loves your mother. He would never agree to marry me" she said.

"But what if he wants to marry you?" I asked her. She looked at me with confusion. "What do you mean?" she asked.

"Mum's last wish was for dad to move on. And dad wants to. Even though he still loves her but he has promised that he'll never cry over her" I told her. By that time she was crying as well as me.

Suddenly the door opened revealing Merissa. "Hey, it's time. Come down" she informed me. "yeah I'll be there" I told.

"So, will you marry my father? Please? For your loves sake?" I asked aunt.

She nodded crying and smiling at the same time.

"Thank you mom" I told her. She chuckled into her tears and hugged me. "I'll be your mom" she said and kissed my cheek.
