That being said, just enjoy reading and have fun :D --------------- Everything seems to be in a blur as I observe people passing through the entrance of the church doors. Organizers might as well be described as 'Frantic' since they simultaneously directed orders left and right to their henchmen. The solemn and blissful feeling is in the air and you can literally hear the wedding bells ringing in your head. And yet, here I am. Trapped in my own reverie amidst the atmosphere I'm currently in. Never have I imagined that I, Lianne Emily Clarkson will be able to attend this day dressed in an elegant white gown with features that'll dub me as the prettiest at this time. I unconsciously glanced at my surroundings, catching a glimpse on a gentleman's wristwatch. " 3:10.. about 45 minutes before the wedding starts." " Excuse me, Miss." his voice breaking me out of my musings. " Aren't you a little early for the wedding?" I was about to reply but decided to throw a non-chalant smile, seeing that It'll just be a waste of time explaining myself. " Why do they keep complaining about me being early and stuff?

He was dressed in a white tux adorning a gray outline paired with a red bow. He ran a hand through his soft, curly locks, fixing himself while doing so. His smile radiates satisfaction which only adds to his stunning features. After exchanging small talks and pleasantries, he slowly walked and headed towards my direction. As he was approaching, I can see the sparkle in his eyes more brighter than they normally would. Well of course, today is an important day not only for him but also for myself. This is a chapter in our life we couldn't afford to miss. When he was already at a close distance, he directed his smile at me and I spoke his name barely above a whisper.
