GLENDA MCDAVIDSON
I feel my stomach tie into complicated knots as we lock gazes. He doesn't take his eyes off me for another minute and I am just standing frozen, dumbstruck.
"Glenda darling, are you okay? We are late for your fitting already." Williams' mom says as she gently pulls me by the wrist to keep me walking.
His eyes trails from my face to my stomach but he doesn't say a word to me. He finally looks away and continues his walk.
"Glenda!" Williams' mom yells.
"Oh! I am so sorry, uhm I am a little nervous."
She smiles and holds my shoulders. "There is nothing wrong with being nervous for such a big day darling but look at me, when you feel scared on that day, just look at me." She says with a smile.
Her smile is so beautiful that it makes my heart melt. She seems so understanding and caring that I selfishly wish she was my mom.
"I will do as you tell me." Jeremy didn't find it hard to remarry almost immediately after we parted. Normally, after a break up back when I was in school, my wait was usually a year before dating again. That is why I never dated much. But now, I guess four months is not too little.
I follow her into the tailor shop. "No more messing up, Glen!" I tell myself as we walk in.
So many wedding dresses, enough to make me want to run away. I was in a dress like one of these when I got destroyed. Alone and hated at the altar.
"Hello! You must be Glenda!" A woman says from behind me. She has on the most elegant smile as she stretches her arm to shake me. She looks younger than I expected, at most she is thirty. Just a few years older than me and she already owns such a big place.
"My name is Min, nice to meet you." She has an Asian accent that is a little hard to ignore but it doesn't matter because it is beautiful. She is beautiful and petite. Her black long hair is perfectly straight and she has on a tummy trouser and a cropped top that reveals her belly button piercing.
"Nice to meet you Min." I smile back at her.
"Do you think you can make something extravagantly beautiful to cover up a pregnancy of…" Williams' mom pauses for me to complete her sentence.
"Four months! Going to five."
"Of course I can! In fact, if the wedding is something you want to happen quickly, I already have something." Min says with a smile.
"You do?" I ask her.
She nods. "Come with me." She leads us to a room that says staff only. "I made this dress for a woman who wanted to get married next week but now her husband has called off the wedding." She explains as she pulls off a tarpaulin like material she had used to protect the dress.
Talking of extravagance, the dress is that word. It is just like a fairy tale dress. No Disney princess ball gown can rank up to it. "It must have cost her a fortune."
"Yes it did. I'm a pro so it took me seven and a half weeks to whip it together but she doesn't need it anymore so I don't know what to do with it." Min responded.
"If you are not married, wouldn't you like to wear it?"
"Oh no way! I would put on the simplest thing I can find. It is not like it would not be a wedding dress to remember but I just don't want a huge dress."
When I think about it, I feel so bad for the original owner of the dress, she must have wanted to make quite an impression on that day but she must be so devastated that she doesn't even want the dress anymore. Neither do I.
"It is perfect!" Williams' mom says before I get the chance to speak. "Don't you just love the sparkles? It kinda makes it look like something Elsa whipped up with her wonderful snow powers."
"Yes, it is beautiful." I force a smile.
"Great! I will pack it up and if you want, you can get married tomorrow." Min responds with a smile.
We leave the building and I can finally breathe. Even though I refused, she sent me over to Williams' home because he had left work early to pick up his wedding suit and then to rest.
"Young master has asked you to wait in the living room and he was very adamant in saying you shouldn't touch his things ma'am." His butler says to me.
"Of course." I smile as I walk in. Right from when she dropped me off in the enormous compound, I have found it hard to believe that just one man lives here.
The inside is decorated in a calm and serene way, the colors kind of bring peace in a way. Not to mention the obviously expensive paintings hung on the walls that told different stories.
Ever since I met the Berkeley family, they have made me feel like I have never had a taste of wealth before. Jeremy is rich but his house is modest, almost like we are in the same wealth status but I know he is far wealthier than my family. I guess he didn't want extravagant things.
"Welcome to my home, I bet you have never seen anything like it before." Williams says from behind me.
I turn around and smile at him. "It is wonderful actually. I love how everything comes together to form a beautiful palace."
"Well, I will instruct my driver to drop you off wherever it is you live. Thank you for coming to my house."
"Wait! I can't leave."
He looks at me like he is a bit angry and confused. "Why? What do you want?"
"It is not in my intention to stag and burden you but your mom said she will come and pick me up later today."
He groans as he rolls his eyes. "She needs to stop trying so hard!"
"I'm sorry for entering your life like this, it wasn't even part of my intention to get married but I want to do it for our child--"
"Your child woman who's name I don't know, your child. I'm not pregnant, you are and whatever, the main thing is you are going through with it anyway." He relaxed on his couch.
"I will do anything you ask me to do, no matter what it is. I promise you I will be a good wife to you Williams." I move closer to him.
"Fine then, I'm horny, I need s*x. Let's go f**k in my bedroom right now." His words catch me off guard and I can't hide how surprised I am.
My cheeks flush red as I stare at the ground. "Do you really want that?"
"Are you questioning me?"
"No!" I raise my gaze to meet his. "Okay…"
He leads me to his bedroom and he doesn't waste time to take off my clothes. He lays me on his bed and begins to undress. I feel I can give myself to him because he is the one I will spend the rest of my life with.
Without any foreplay, he pushes his hardness inside me and I wince at the pain I felt as his c**k is larger than I expect. But the pain soon disappears as his every thrust fills me with so much pleasure that I might explode.
"Oh yeah…" He mumbles so seductively.
I want to moan too but he places his palm so tightly over my mouth that my moans only sound like muffled noises.
It isn't anything romantic, he just needs a place to c*m. But still, his moans, the way his hands touch me, it is enough to make me c*m too.
His phone which he placed right next to us on the bed starts to ring and an animatronic voice speaks. "Incoming call from Jeremy Lynch."
Immediately the name sings into my ear, I feel anxiety and perplexity overshadow the pleasure I am feeling and it consumes me whole. He knows Jeremy Lynch???
