Daniella Campbell

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's the day before the big day.

"Daniella, put those cucumber slices on your eyes." Mom instructed.

"Okay." I replied.

For the past few days after dad's recovery, he didn't speak.

I never heard a thing or two from him the whole two days after he was charged out of the hospital.

Neither did I heard anything from John as well.

I guess he really did get out of my life when I told him to.

I placed the two fresh cucumber slices over my eyes while mom spread the avocado mask evenly on my face.

Tomorrow's the big day.

I can't even believe it.

Time flies so fast, don't you think?

The soothing scent of peppermint calmed my senses.

The next thing I know, I was in my cloud of thoughts chasing unicorns and leprechauns sliding from the rainbow and falling into the pot of gold, which only means I am already drifting away from the harsh reality and into the world of dreams which are only happening in your sleep.

================

"Wake up! Wake up!"

I can feel someone tugging my blanket.

I gripped the edges of the blanket and it's like a game of tug-of-war with someone who kept tugging my blanket.

"Daniella!!!"

I recognize the voice and it was mom.

I am struggling on opening my eyes and peeped into one eye and saw my mom standing beside my bed.

"What?" I asked.

I saw my mom with arms crossed near her chest, she's already wearing her outfit for the wedding.

Her hair is already fixed up and make up smeared evenly all over her face.

"Young lady, it's six hours before your wedding and here you are lazing around in bed!" Mom scolded.

Shoot! It's the peppermint's fault!

The scent was so soothing that I forgot to set up my alarm clock last night.

I quickly showered and dried myself up.

The hairdressers came in my room and my wedding dress is delivered.

This is the day.

The moment every girl dreamt of.

Being a bride of someone they love.

I, Daniella Campbell, in the age of seventeen, will make my dreams come true.

To be wedded on a church, with my classmates and teachers, friends and family.

The only problem is--

Me.

My feelings.

John.
