Narrated

The wedding was taking place in the garden. Everyone was pleased with how beautiful she was like. The small wedding turned out to be as big as the place where crowded. Michael and his team were already there. They were all wearing all black with their sunglasses. One will think they came to the funeral. Monica and his father took steps to the aisles as they were accompanied by Tiego and William's cousin. They took their steps as the bridal chorus (here comes the bride) was played in the background. People were taking pictures as others were admiring the moment. William's face was filled with happiness to a point that tears escaped his eyes. I believe the day that he has been waiting for has finally arrived. Monica's father let William take over as William and Monica go to the aisles. Tiego, Monica's father, and William's cousin went to take a seat.

William: You are an angel, you are beyond beautiful
Monica: Thank you

They took their steps to the Aisles and the pastor stood before them and start preaching.

Pastor

It is by the grace of Lord that today we are sermon in this house of Radebe's. What brought us here today is love. I like to welcome everyone who heard the wedding bells and decide to be here to witness the beautiful and pure love. And Everyone who came here to help to celebrate the two people you found just love and cherish it.
Lucas's presence took everyone's attention to a point that even the pastor paused a little to watch him taking a seat. Lucas smiled at everyone who was staring at him. I believe they are not used to see a white American around.
William: (whispered to Monica) who's that?
Monica: I don't know

The pastor cleared his throat before he could proceed. I should get to the business of the day.
It is said in the holy book when you check on Ephesians 5:25 It says, Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her. So here Mr. Mahlangu you are advised to love your bride just like how Jesus loved his church. When we proceed with it, it says "However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband". Our bride here you are advised to give respect in return.

Police were gathered outside the yard with four cars but that didn't disturb the wedding as people were not aware of the police cars ever since the wedding was taking place in the garden.

Police officer: Take your positions, everyone. Sir are you ready?
"I have never been so ready, I have been waiting for this day"

John says, There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. We love because he first loved us. The message behind the script says, when you love truly there shouldn't be fear because no fear comes out of love. And it also said A man should never spend the rest of his days alone that is the reason why we are here today.

Corinthians 7 says, It is good for them to stay unmarried, as I am. But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
So I take it that Mr. Mahlangu couldn't control himself that's why he choose to marry Miss Radebe
Pastor: So Miss Radebe do you take William Mahlangu to be your lawful husband and spend the rest of your days with him?
Monica: Yes I do
Pastor: Mr. Mahlangu Do you take miss Monica Radebe to be your lawful wife and spend the rest of your days with?
William: Yes I do
Pastor: Now if anyone has a say into why those two people shouldn't get married please raise your hands or voice out

The voice from the background took everybody's attention " I have a say and I refuse to let this marriage happen
Lucas: What the fuck is this Erick?
Erick: Damn, they said they are going to skip the country
Police officer: Sir you arrested under arrested for attempting to kill Mr. Brandon Malatji
Lucas tried to run but he couldn't as police where around him they handcuffed him along with His bodyguards and Erick. And on the other side, Michael tipped his team to stop with their mission as they couldn't believe their eyes when they see Brandon. Things didn't make any sense
Pastor: Umh sir who are you?
Monica: Brandon, am I dreaming?
The crowd: Is this the neighbor that it said he got killed?
Brandon indeed was in flesh, he was wheeling a wheelchair towards the aisles.

Brandon: I refuse to let this marriage happen because I love Monica
(William was beyond pissed but he couldn't do anything because the police where around he just kept his cool and pled to Monica that she solve whatever was happening) I love you and I want you to be my wife. Last week, it was hell for me. I went through a lot to a point where I faced hell hole and that made me realize the good we have been through. I couldn't go a day without thinking of you. Monica, I have wronged you so hard and I have broken your heart so I pled for forgiveness. You are the only person who showed me the mean full of love and pure love. My heart belongs to you always. I am still feeling the same about you in how I felt three years back. I can't let him steal your away from me because you were the only hope I have held on to in my darkest days. I only felt the light when I think of you. With all those feelings that's when I realized that life without you it's hell, so Monica Radebe will you please marry me?

The crowd was so surprised in what just happened and happy in how Brandon just expressed how he feels about Monica. William felt no fit by that time and Monica on the other side she couldn't stop crying
Star-joe: Dude you never told me you are so romantic!!
The whole crowd laughed, I guess he was loud enough as everyone was quiet waiting to hear what Monica have to say about Brandon's proposal.
Monica: Yes I do Brandon
Everyone cherished the moment as Monica hugged Brandon.
Pastor: On the days like this I don't know how to react
Brandon: Proceed with the wedding
Monica: Really? oh my gosh

Police officer: Sir did you ask for backup
Police officer: Brandon...you are under arrest for booming the ATM machine

Everybody went to quit. Other crow tried to escape but they couldn't as the place was filled with the police. Monica tried to stop the police from taking Brandon but her cry fell in deaf ears and as for William he disappeared to a place where nobody knows. You can't blame him having the girl you love being taken away from you, it's heartbreaking.
