The Love Assignment

Prologue

I watched her wearing a white gown, her face was hidden behind the veil. But I knew she'd look pretty. The church was decorated according to her interest, and that I could figure out just standing there. As she walked closer to the alter, my legs trembled. I knew she was nervous like me by the way she held the red roses in her hand. Every now and then she looked up nervously to see Alex who stood in his best suit,  standing at the alter, waiting to take her hand.

I clutched the magazine opening to the article 'Why do people fall in love' tightly in my hand, as she took another step, tiny hands held her extra long dress at the back. The sight looked beautiful to everyone around but to me it looked distant. I could already feel the tears brimming up in my eyes. Fear of losing her forever was breaking my heart.

While everyone looked at her, I looked down to the magazine, the words standing out bold and bright 'Why do people fall in love?' and I wondered 'Why did I fall in love, of all the women in the world, why did I fall for Vall'.

The question kept building up loudly in my head, "Why her?, Why Vall?''.

She was standing at the alter by now, looking so beautiful that I felt my breath hitch. When it was time to tell "I do", she surprised me and everyone by saying "I am sorry" and ran the opposite direction of the alter, out of the church. I saw people running behind her. I sat in my place, tears of happiness touching my cheeks. I let out my long held breath, mouthing "Your one of a kind women Vall, God, I love you".
