Unexpected Love

Bonny's Pov Today was supposed to be the best day of my life, as I was to get married to the love of my life, the man who completed me, and my high school sweethearts. I was currently waiting for my fiancé, Seth, at the magistrate's office. I was waiting at the offices for almost an hour, and he didn't show up or even notify me that he was going to be late. I decided to call him since he wasn't showing up, and it was getting late. He picked up after I had made seven calls to him . " Seth, where are you? It's been an hour since I've been here." I asked with a shaky voice. Somehow, I wasn't confident because he took so long to answer. " Bonny, I won't make it today. Something has come up, and I don't think I should leave it. It's important that I finish it." " What do you mean? "How can whatever is important to our wedding remember we have been planning this for so long, and now we finally have the chance to go through with this?" I felt tears trickling down my eyes. How can this happen? No, he is just teasing me. I know it. I sniffled to drive the tears that were threatening to spill so that my make-up wouldn't be messed up. " It is important Bonny, just bear with me for today. I know we planned this but right now I can't make it. I will meet with you later to explain the matter further." We have been planning this day ever since he proposed, and he couldn't wait to get married to me, but today he is telling me to cancel everything that could be. " But everything has been planned. What about our dreams together? Please you can't cancel me and embarrass me like this." " I'm sorry to be honest. "I don't think we are compatible, and I don't want kids, we want different things, so I believe that we won't work," he answered. " I won't force you to have kids," Seth said. We can still have a beautiful life without kids. That's how much I love you. Please don't do this to me and come here. I am waiting for you. Please I beg of you." " Tell that b***h that she is disturbing us, Seth. I am becoming impatient. It's high time she knows the truth. We can't be hiding forever besides you don't love her anymore. Why waste time on her? " A voice echoed from the other side of the phone indicating that there was a female person who was with Seth and I had a feeling that I knew that person very well, but who could that be? The voice sounded very familiar. " Who was that?" I asked in a panicked voice. "Who was what? Are you hallucinating again there is no one here?" " The person who was just talking a few moments ago heard a female voice, Seth " " You know what f**k, it's about time I told you the truth. ""That was Amelia", he answered so freely, without thinking twice. " What truth Seth? Why would Amelia be with you, while you were supposed to be here with me getting married?" I asked him, my heart thumbing like crazy in my rib cage. " She is helping me with something at the moment, and you have interrupted us." " What kind of thing is she helping you with? You never worked with her. Why today? Are you two seeing each other ?" I asked in a muffled voice, not wanting to know the answer, knowing that I was about to break down. "It's clear that you are dumb b***h, obviously we are dating, and it's been going on for years. If I were you, I would go home and cry myself to sleep because there won't be any weddings that would take place on this day. And by the way, the niece that you love so much it's his daughter." Amelia answered the phone, and she was speaking with venom in her voice. The anger was too much to bear, and what was this thing she just mentioned: Kristy being Seth's daughter? I don't believe that. I would have seen it, or would I? I was full of questions that I didn't have answers to. I feel like I can't breathe yet. I am here trying to put air in my lungs. How can they do this to me? For all the years I've known them, especially Amelia. I never thought she would do this to me. I trusted her. They both betrayed me, and it's been happening for four years now. Kristy is four or maybe even before that. " No please, give Seth the phone Amelia please. I need to know what's going on please. " But the call ended with a snickering laugh that taunted me the entire time and when that call was disconnected I felt empty and didn't know what to do. I was dejected and way too embarrassed to even try to meet anyone, so I decided to sit down on the pavement in front of the magistrate's office without caring about what people would say as they watched me in this state. I just had my heart yanked out and broken into several pieces and handed to me on a silver platter without a second thought and to think that it's the people I hold dearly in my heart, is the thing that is slowly killing me. The pain was worse. I felt like dying, as I felt like there was nothing else for me to live for. While I was busy crying my heart out, I overheard a conversation with a man standing not too far from me and I knew it was wrong to eavesdrop, but I couldn't help it as he was actually louder. " I don't like people who are not punctual. She was supposed to have been here ages ago. "Didn't you tell her how important it was for this to happen at that very moment?" He shouted over the phone and I felt sorry for the person who was on the other line . " I'm sorry sir, let me try to get hold of her again" The other man said over the phone speaker as the one next to me was speaking with a speaker on. " What a waste of time" he sighed and spoke out loud after disconnecting the phone. The phone rang again after a few minutes, and he picked it up immediately. "And ?" he barked at whoever was calling, and I got scared at the sound of his voice. It was harsh and cold. "We are unable to get hold of her, even her workplace doesn't know where she is as she didn't report to work today." "If you didn't find her, why would you come back empty-handed? You know how important this is. You should at least find someone who can do the job and stop wasting my time, make it work." " I'm not leaving until the deed is done. Better find me someone who is willing to get married this time", he replied. This was my chance. Without even thinking twice, I found myself responding. " I will marry you." The man turned around, and I responded again with surerity in my voice. " I will marry you if you are willing" I said again.
