"It was my nineteenth birthday and I was walking through the park with my friend Mable, May for short, and we saw this guy just setting next to the pond. So May and I walked past him."
"I remember May saying 'He's cute go get his number!' I told her 'no' but she had to yell out to the guy making him stop what he was doing and walked over to us.
I remember feeling so angry at May but now.. no I'm still angry.
Anyways she said that I was wanted his number. So he gave me the number and that was it really.
Moving on to now."I run my fingers through my bangs.
"Here I am, trying to convince myself to marry that boy I met by the pond." I close my eyes and laugh at myself. Before continuing I look back at the camera lens with my lip between my lips.
"You notice what I just said there? 'Convince'. That tells you why I skipped past the last three years." I stand up from the chair I've been setting in for the last four hours to stand by the window.
"I have my whole life to find someone who really cares about me, and my dreams. Not be some douche to me and treat me like I'm nothing." I whisper as if I'm scared he might hear me."I don't think I can do this. I don't have to worry about paying anyone back because Terry paid for everything." I turn around and set back down the in the chair. "By the way my fiancé name is Terry."
"Ok now that I've had this little self therapy session thing then I can make a decision soon.." I look around the room and then down at my engagement ring. I almost forgot that it was there. If my mother was here and I told her this she'd say. 'Do whatever you feel is right. But if I ever find out he hits you I'll kill him.'
I set and think about every little detail.
Then I fall asleep.

I'm woken up by my sister-in-law.
She shoved me out of the chair."You need to get up! My brother and you are getting married today! Remember!" God I forgot she yelled so much. My head hurts so much from the way that I fell asleep last night. Ugh I hurt all over actually.
"Why you got that old a** camera over here?!"I stand up and rip the camera from her perfectly manicured hands.
She furrows her eyebrows and open her mouth great big.
I almost laughed when I looked at her.
"Oh. My. God! How dare you! Fine take care of yo own da*n self! Without my help you'll look horrible." She smiled like she was even gonna help me get ready in the first place. She storms out of the room and slams the door.
Wow. She needs to tone it way done.
I call my mother and she comes in my room. Still in a bathrobe her hair on curlers."What is it honey? Isn't that boys sister supposed to help you? I mean she is the "maid of honor"." Mom covers up her mouth so no one can hear her laugh. Even though it's only me and her in the room.
"Hey mom?"
She stops laughing. "Yes sweetie?"
"I don't think I can do this." It feels like a weight has been lifted from my chest.
My mom asks me to set down next to her. It seems like we always do this before we have any kind of discussion.
"Tell me how you feel about this wedding."
"I don't know.." I run my hand through my hair. "It doesn't feel right."
"Hun," she takes my hand in her smaller hand, lightly patting it.
"If it doesn't feel right, then it isn't right."I look up at my mother and she gives me a warm hearted, sympathetic smile. I feel like I'm gonna cry, but I know what she's says is true.
Ok then. I have to say it out loud."I'm not going to get married today."
The second those words fall out of my mouth the door flies open, reveling a fuming soon-to-be ex-sister in law.
"Oh-" I say
"Shit." My mothers slips out.
