Twist Of Life

wedding guest

I was dressed in a red maxi dress i couldn't wear heels because my back still hurts,i couldn't walk properly.
Mom has been trying to convince me not to go but I promised  her I that would behave myself.

Dad had travelled again,so it was easier. I prayed the news wouldn't get to him though.

Khalif on the other hand was still dressing up I wonder whether he was the groom.

Zara oh Zara, she has been calling frequently trying to apologize on her brothers behalf, I told her it was okay..it wasn't her fault after all.

Wedding venue
The venue was beautifully decorated.
The bride and groom were not here ,so we were just sitted in a table of four with two other girls who were checking Khalifa out, he was good looking though.

We were here to attend the dinner.
"that's a good catch you know"said one of the girls sitting next to me. She was referring to Khalif.
"I know" I said cutting her off.

"she isn't even pretty"said one the girls,i could sense jealousy,who was she I thought. I forgot about it and focused on the couple making an entrance,Aisha was dressed in a black dinner gown,she was beautiful though  I hated to admit.she was smiling and dancing.

Mukhtar,my mukhtar his smile didn't seem real to me, it wasn't like how he always smiled those  times I met him in Zara's house.a close look he had some eye bags probably from the wedding preparations.

I  felt my heart tightening,khalif reached over and tapped my hands,i understood he was telling me to calm down.
What was I doing here at first I thought."to see the love of your life get married"my inner self chimed.
I really had a stupid heart to have fallen for someone so fast I thought, I and mukhtar never really spent much time together.we started to text each other though, that was after the proposal before thee cancelled wedding..

The event went fast,it was time for pictures.throughout the event  Khalif didn't say anything.the girls beside us were just making bad comments about Aisha.

I stood up to greet the couple and make them aware of my attendance.
After, they had taken pictures with the family,it was time to take pictures with the friends they haven't still noticed me yet the place was crowded with people.

So I moved forward closer to the couple my eyes not leaving mukhtar's even though he hadn't seen me yet.
Then our eyes met, it was like time had froze...he took his eyes  away.i still went closer so I could meet Aisha.
"congratulations dear "I said giving her a hug she froze for a second before embracing me. She had that I wasn't expecting you kinda look yes bitch I came I said internally.
"congratulations "I said moving close to mukhtar. He gave me a sad smile, "what are you doing here?  Huh! What do you mean by that I asked.
He walked away,but I followed he stopped.. "see we can't be together"just forget it. And I wouldn't want anyone to meet you here with me.i kept looking at him with disbelief,"is this who you are you bastard!i cried 
"yes this is me,now leave me alone"
"security please take this woman out" I heard from behind.
