Wedding Eve Error

Chapter 5

Klara woke up the following morning feeling extremely happy. As she came out of her room, she met Micheal, she felt shy immediately and was about running back into her room when Micheal pulled her into his arms and whispered, “good morning girlfriend” which sent shivers down her spine. 'Girlfriend? it feels as though i'm hearing this word for the first time' she thought to herself. He was about to peck her on the forehead when Ray cleared his throat from behind, “hmmm…what is happening here, what did I miss, when did this start?” he asked with his eyes wide. Klara ran inside her room.

“Uhhhhh…Why are you such a joy-kill Ray!” Micheal asked in an annoying tone. “What? What did I do? I just asked a harmless question. But seriously, when did it start hmm hmm?” Ray asked teasingly. *Pam* his mother hit his head, “let them be you naughty boy” “Ouch...mum! how am I the only one in the dark here” Ray whined. “why won’t you be in the dark, you are not always at home” his mum retorted. “I was at home early yesterday mum, I arrived home before dad and Micheal, I even went on a stroll with her and she didn’t mention anything like this to me which is why I’m lost.”

“They agreed to start dating last night, which is why you should back off. I was surprised you came home early yesterday which is unlike you, then I realized it was because of her. She is your brother’s wife-to-be now, so let it go” his mum said while glaring at him. “Wife-to-be? You just said they started dating, how are you sure she will be his wife? Mum why not me, why Micheal? Or don’t I deserve a beautiful girl” Ray whined. Micheal glared at him. “You are not ready for marriage now, when it’s your turn, we will find you a suitable girl” his mum said. “Now go call her for me Micheal, we need to prepare breakfast and have some quality family time, it’s Saturday” “Alright mum” Micheal replied and left.

Klara scratch her hair as she paced around when he entered, she stood at a place looking down, drawing with her toes while grinning from ear to ear. He walked straight to her, raised her head to face him and said, “Don't you think we have an unfinished business.” “Huh?” she said in a cute baby voice. “puffff” he chuckled and pecked her forehead. “Mum said I should call you.” She bat her eyelashes severally and said, “oh ok” as she ran out of the room.

In the kitchen, she greeted her aunt while blushing so much. Her aunt smiled and said,” come dear, let’s make breakfast.” After breakfast, the men stayed at the sitting room watching football. She followed her aunt to her room, “aunt Mary, he asked me out on a date today.” “Really.” “Yes but I don’t have anything to wear.” “Come on honey, that’s not a problem, go dress up lets go find something sexy for your date” she said excitedly.

As they came downstairs and ready to leave, the men raised their heads and asked in unison, “where are you guys going to?” “Girls day out” Mrs Obi replied. Micheal stepped closer to Klara and asked, “You remember our date right?” “No she doesn’t, I’m going to kidnap her the whole day” his mum said sarcastically which made Klara blush as they left.

Ray chuckled and said, “Mr lover boy” while hitting Micheal’s shoulder. Their dad looked at him and said, “you know this is not just an affair between you two, the two families are involved so you have to treat her right.” “I know dad” he replied.

At the mall, Mrs Obi seemed so excited. She wished Klara would stay longer so they could do this ‘girls day out’ more often. She even introduced her as her future daughter in-law to a friend of hers at the mall. They got a beautiful short pink gown and a heel to match.

They went to the spa, salon and grabbed some ice cream before heading home. They got home late in the afternoon. Micheal was restless at home, he thought he was going to spend the day with Klara before their dinner date but his mum ruined his plan. He didn’t believe he could miss her so much, but he called her from time to time.

At 6 o’clock, it was time for them to leave for the dinner date. Micheal was set and was seated with his parents and brother at the living room waiting for Klara. They heard the door to her room open, and then she stepped out. *phew* Ray whistled, “O.M.G.” “Wow, you look very beautiful my dear” their father complimented. “I knew it is going to look perfect on you honey” their mother complimented. Micheal stood rooted at a place as he stare at her, she looked like an angel, the short pink gown complimented her chocolate skin colour, her curves scream “God is a sculpture”. She looks so perfect; he couldn't believe she is his. Klara stood there blushing as she waited for Micheal to say something.

He walked close to her, held her hands, “hey, hmm..i don’t..i don’t know what to say, you are so prefect” he said while they look into each other’s eyes. She smiled “thank you, you look good yourself” “Thank you, shall we” as he held out his arm for her. She entwined her arms with his as he led her away. Outside, she looked back and saw his parents and brother, she waved them goodbye with the other free hand. When they got to the car, he opened the passenger door for her, then entered the car as they drove off. He already made a reservation in a very fancy restaurant.
