"Wake up! Pam wake up...!"
I heard my mom trying to wake our entire neighbourhood. Out of pity and humanity towards my neighbours I decided to answer my mom for once with a "Yes". Before we move on with what I did, you all should know a few things about me first. My name is Pamela Matthews (Pam for short) and I am 18 years old. I am 5'6 inches tall and I love to cook, eat and read. My passion for basketball is what has kept me in shape. Otherwise the rate at which I pig out the junk food at home, I'll never ever in my dreams be able to maintain my hourglass figure. Now, I am not pretty and at the same time I am not ugly too. I am just a mediocre. I have my own flaws. Like I don't have the perfect hair or the pouty lips or the slender legs as I am a curvy, etc. With the introductions being done lets get on with the story shall we, because my neighbours might be two seconds away from calling 911.
I turn to my left and take my hand out of the comfy blanket to check my phone. I look at the time and groan mentally. Its just 6 am and my cousin's wedding was not supposed to begin before 8 am. So I again snuggle back into my blanket and go back to my dreams where I was about to kiss Arjun Kapoor (Picture is attached). As our lips met my ass made contact with something really really hard. Now now now, don't think too much people. It was my mom who literally kicked me out of bed which resulted in me falling flat on my ass. Just like every other mom, my mom was behind my life. She kept on listing on what I was gonna wear, how I am supposed to do my hair, how much make up I should put on, what shade of lipstick to be applied, blah blah blah. Even though I love the dress, I don't want to listen to everything my mom tells. But I had to otherwise my mom will get hurt and I don't wanna hurt her by disobeying after all I have always been her ideal daughter. And also I am the eldest sister, so I have to set an example.
Not wanting to argue any more I started getting ready. I take out the dress my mom had selected for me. Its a lavender coloured dress (pic attached) and I put it on along with some silver shoes. As instructed I put my hair up in a bun and leave some bangs falling all over my face. It doesn't look as good as it would have had I kept my hair down, but I don't think too much into it. I move on to my make up and here I ignore what my mom said and simply apply some eyeliner and mascara for the eyes and some lip gloss and finish my look. Well one thing good about me is my skin. Its clear and flawless so thankfully no work needed there. I take one final glance in the mirror and then check the time. It was just quarter past 7 and I was ready. So not knowing what to do I simply pull out the book I was reading last night from the shelf and continue reading.
Suddenly someone screams in my ear and scares the shit out of me. I drop the book and try to calm my wildly beating heart while glaring at my stupid moron brother Matt for sneaking up on me like that. But that jerk! He's busy rolling on the floor laughing at me. When finally he is done laughing he pulls himself up and stand almost half a feet taller than me wearing a nice suit and showing his cute dimples while miserably failing to hide his laughter. He than tells me that we got to leave now and that mom's been calling me. We make our way together to the front porch where dad's already seated with mom in the car. Both of us get into the car and we leave for the venue which is just 5 mins drive from our house.
When we reach the venue, we are greeted by my uncle and aunt who are standing there to greet the guests. I greet my aunt and she just couldn't stop gushing over how beautiful I was looking. I simply smile and say "Thank You" and run before she again tries to set me up with guys. She's the match maker of our family and has been miserably trying and failing over and over to set me up with guys she and mom found appropriate since I turned 18. I bump into some a guy on my way and when I look up to apologise, I see the most attractive face I have ever seen, I feel butterflies in my stomach and I go weak in my knees and fall into his arms. HAHAHA!!! Well I was joking. Nothing of that sort happened. I was in such a hurry that I didn't even look up. I just said a rushed "sorry" and ran away from there not even bothering to see if he was hurt or did he even hear me .I directly went looking for my cousins. I found the gang lounging in the bridegroom aka Andy's room, I made my way towards them and made myself comfortable on the sofa. Suddenly some guy came in rubbing his chest and without looking up he said "Man, some girl bumped into me, elbowed me hard in the chest which is paining badly. That girl didn't even have enough of manners to at least say sorry."
