Normani's POV

I had already gotten dressed and I just stood there looking at myself in the mirror. I cannot believe that I will actually be getting married today to my bestfriend. I never believed in love and it always felt cliche to me, I felt that a happily ever after only existed in fairytales; but here I am about to walk down that aisle.

" You amazing sweetheart. My beautiful daughter" My says while kissing me on my forehead

" Thank you mom" I said while looking myself over in the mirror once more


" I'll be right back. Imma go and make sure everything is set"

" You're the best mom. I love you"

" I love you more Manibear"

I heard a knock on the door so I assumed it was probably my mother or maybe my maid of honor Ally so I casually told the person to enter

" Khalid what are you doing in here you know we're not suppose to see each other before the wedding"


" That's fucking superstitions Mani" He took a seat across from me


" Why aren't you dress?"


" That's what I am here to talk to you about"


" Are you getting cold feet and decided to call off the wedding at the last minute? Babe I get it if you are nervous"


" Mani- I- I don't deserve you" He managed to say while dropping his head in his hands


" Yes you babe, you're an amazing man" I pulled his face to mine to kiss him with much passion. " You don't have to be scared baby we are in this together"



" I can't marry Mani" He said almost above a whisper he had gotten up by now and was pacing the room


" So why are you telling me this now? Why wait until our wedding day? In fact why did you propose then?" I looked at him with hurt laced in my eyes


" I-It's because of something that happened lastnight"


" What is it? Tell me"


" At the bachelor party the guys hired a stripper and I was drunk really drunk out of my mind and the next thing I knew I had her on top-

I did not wait for him to finish his statement because I knew what he was going to say next. So instead I slapped the shit out of him. After everything I did for him, I give him and his son a place to stay when he had nowhere to go. I allowed myself to fall deeply in love with this man only to get my hurt broken.


" How can you do this to me Khalid?" I was literally in tears right now


" Mani I am so so sorry" He tried to touch me but I moved I cannot stand the sight of him right now.



" You being drunk is not excuse you should have known better and be responsible. This was probably a game to you all the time. Let me get with bestfriend she is hot and rich. You got what you wanted so now to hell with me"

" It's not like that. I love you Normani-


" Don't don't just don't you fucking saying those words to me" I took off the engagement ring and toss it at him. "DON'T EVER TRY TO CONTACT ME OR OUR CHILDREN. YOU MAY TAKE JOSH IF YOU DESIRE BECAUSE HE IS YOURS AFTER ALL BUT THE TWINS ARE MY FLESH AND BLOOD. WHEN I GET HOME I WANT YOUR ALL OF YOUR SHIT PACKED AND OUT OF MY FUCKING HOUSE" He tried to grab me but I quickly walked out of his grip and ran out of the church with tears streaming down my face.

" Mani are you-ready- Khalid what are you doing in here?"

" Uh- mamadrea the wedding is off" He said playing with the engagement ring and wiping a tear out of his eye


" Why what happened?"


" I fucked up big time"

" What did you do Khalid, you know what never mind finding my daughter is more importany right now imma deal with your sorry ass later" She storms off


The End.
