Eirina
I hear a knock and I give permission to enter. My dad is coming really happy. He hugs me and looks me from head to toe.
“Honey, you look amazing.”
“Thanks dad.” I smile and I see my dress. Indeed it is a very elegant dress. When John said to me that I should buy a wedding dress that represents perfectly our families names, I ran to Berta. I always loved their wedding dresses.
My wedding dress is just amazing. It is like a ballgown, V-neck with white lace and a small train. It has small flowers from the breasts and low. My flower bucket has daisies, lilies and peonies. My shoes are white Louboutin stilettos. I wear a medium veil and my hair is high in a sinion. Yes, I am perfect... but... yet... not happy
John
I am waiting for the bride to walk down the aisle. I have spoken to everybody that has come to the wedding and I know that my staff has everything under control. The music begins, everyone stands up and the church’s doors open for the bride.
THE BRIDE
I believe I am a dead man. Or I am in paradise. Or I am just dreaming. I see in front of me a fairy. A princess. I see the woman who will be my wife in a few minutes. Holy crap! I am screw up! How will I behave myself? Oh dear God, she is soooo gorgeous!
The music stops and her father commends Eirina to me.
“Take good care of my little girl, son.” He says emotionally
“I will, sir.”
The wedding begins... after some time the priest says:
“John Harold Smith, do you take Eirina Sarah to be your lawfully wedded wife? do promise to love and cherish her, in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health, for richer for poorer, for better for worse, and forsaking all others, keep yourself only unto her, for so long as you both shall live?”
I look at her and I say “I do.”
Eirina doesn’t look me in the eyes. She looks all the time at her bouquet and I really don’t know if she even hears the ceremony.
“Eirina Sarah do you take John Harold Smith to be your lawfully wedded husband? do promise to love and cherish him, in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health, for richer for poorer, for better for worse, and forsaking all others, keep yourself only unto him, for so long as you both shall live?”
She gulps and she says in low voice
“I do”
She did say the “I do”... for a moment I think that she will back off and leave me in the aisle. When the priest pronounces us husband and wife, I have to kiss her. I put my hands in her cheeks, I see her in eyes and low to her mouth. As soon as my lips meet hers, all I can think off is how sweet - yummy she tastes. I hardly back off.
“Let’s go kitty, we have to greet our guests.” I say and I escort her to our after wedding party.
I stand in a corner and Gas approaches me.
“Hey you... congrats! You are a married guy now!” He says and laughs
“Are you having fun teasing me?” I say and pick another glass of champagne.
“Well John, we both know that you didn’t have any other choice. If you didn’t marry her, you would never have the company. Relax buddy, it’s just a year..” Gas suggests and I see with the corner of my eyes that Lizz approaches Eirina.
Eirina
The act is coming to an end.... at least I believe so... I want to go home, wherever home is.. I want to lay down to bed and just forget everything...
“Congratulations!!!” I turn around and I see a middle aged woman, smiling at me.
“Thank you Mrs...”
“Aw, call me Lizz. I am the widow of John’s grandfather.”
“Oh, I am sorry for your lost.”
“Don’t be honey... he was too old...” she shakes her hand like she doesn’t mind.. weird...
“How are you, honey?” She continues
“I am fine”
“Really? I thought that you would be really upset... I mean, forcing to marry a man you don’t love because of his company...” she says and drinks champagne
“What the...??? How can she...?” I am thinking and I really can’t think of a good answer to her comment...
Luckily John appears next to me. He puts an arm in my hip and gaze this Lizz
“Lizz..” he says, but his expression is tough
“John!!! Congratulations!!! I was just talking to your wife...” she replies with too much happiness
“About what...?”
“Nothing too important, love” I say “Lizz just claims that we married just for the company”
I feel John next to me getting irritated
“Really honey? Maybe Lizz is used to be married in the interests of herself and she thinks that we did the same... poor Lizz.” John says roughly and continues “Lizz if you will excuse us... we have to consummate our marriage.” And he takes me far away from this weirdo.
“What the...?” I try to speak but he stops me
“Just keep walking.”
He approaches the stage with me by his side. He grabs the microphone and everyone is looking at us
“On behalf of my wife and me, I would like to thank everybody that has came to your wedding. I know we hurried up the wedding, but the truth is I couldn’t wait long to be married with beautiful inside and outside woman. And now... if you will excuse us, we will be off to our bed” he says and the crowd cheer!
He takes me by the hand and we leave
