Chapter 14: My Wedding

My wedding was approaching faster than I expected. Alfonso kept coming by everyday to make sure everything was ready. How I wish my dad was the one to hand me over. Wait did I say hand me over? I think I forgot I was getting married in court not a church. My life long dream was to get married in white in the St. John Vianney Catholic Church where I had my baptism, first holy communion and confirmation but here I am getting ready to sign a few pieces of papers and my life will be joined to Alfonso forever. Impossible.

I took my phone and called Alfonso to break our engagement because I need to fulfill my dream.

Alfonso: Good you called, I was just about to call you.
Me: What's wrong Alfonso?
Alfonso: Meet me at the park near your house in fifteen minutes.
Me: okay. Be there. Bye
Alfonso: Bye.

I quickly got dressed while Ana hailed a taxi for me. I got to the park after 12 minutes and met Alfonso near the bench where I found Renato." Trying to be punctual huh?" He said."Yes" I replied."I found out I am to inherit after our wedding. We would be millionaires. I never knew I had all these."  He said.  "Okay. We thank God." I replied. "You don't seem excited" he said."I am" I lied. He looked at me with a worried face which made me feel bad.

"Tell me what they are" I said sarcastically trying to sound humorous.  "Our name" he said. "Name?" I asked surprised.  "Yes name. The name Santiago. My father's last name." He replied excitedly.  "That name sounds familiar" I said trying to remember where. "Of course it's a popular name. I am going to own shares in a lot of companies and I own fifty percent of Andertroph, one of Europe and America's most renowned company." He said. The word Andertroph sounded in my ears. I felt different as if something was eating up my soul.

Revenge! Yes revenge that was it. I need to take revenge over that jerk and make him pay for everything. My thought of breaking our engagement just vanished. For the first time I kissed him and he was surprised. We talked a little more until it was time for him to resume duty. I went home with a new feeling. The desire for revenge.

Saturday came sooner than I thought. My wedding day. It took me two hours to get dresses into my flawless gown which Ana specially selected. Just then, I heard the horn of a car. Not long after Renato came to tell me someone was waiting for me.

I went out and to my surprise, a beautiful SUV was there beautifully designed with flowers.

The driver came down and opened the door. I sat in and the car began moving, I looked back and daw Renato. He was smiling.

He drove seriously until we parked in front of a church."Where are we?" I asked the driver. "The St. Catherine of Siena Catholic Church ma'am." He replied." Who asked you to bring me here?" I asked again. "I am not in the position to tell you madam" he replied.

Just then my door opened, I got down to see Ana dressed in a maid of honour's down and six other ladies I did not know.
"Shall we proceed Miss" someone said. I turned and saw the former president of Italy. I almost screamed but looking at the surrounding I would have been embarrassed.

"I owe your father in law a favour" he said and then fixed his arms into mine. The big church was filled to capacity.

I walked in and every body stood up. The pianist began to play deck the halls for my bridal entrance. I couldn't stop smiling as I entered. I walked to the sanctuary to see Alfonso dressed in a white suit.

A cardinal was there to officiate the mass. There were a lot of prominent people in the chapel. I was very happy.

After the wedding, we had our after party at a 5-Star restaurant with a lot of food. My life long dream almost  came through. I longed for my father most. Daddy, I wish you were here was all I could say to my self. 

The party was great. We were a lot. The cake was a five pier cake with a bride and groom kissing at the top. It was a very beautiful cake. We cut it with the first lady. It was amazing. A lot of people were there. But none could replace my papa. It was a wonderful day.

After almost everyone left, I felt pain in my lower abdomen. Not long after someone told me my dress was soiled. I checked to see blood. I was bleeding. I screamed and Alfonso came and saw what was happening. He quickly called an ambulance and I was taking to the hospital.

I am sorry if it took long for me to update. I had school. We are on mid term so I will try to update a lot. Thanks for reading. Please recommend to your friends. Comment and then vote.
