It about to happen, last night was a thriller, we stayed up, enjoyed ourselves, played throughout the night and here we are, Jack standing across from me, others outside as we were getting ready to drive from the hotel to the church, someone was not here, someone who was supposed to be, someone I hoped he would come, yet knew he possibly won't show his face, I sew three suits just for him if he happens to come, sewed one which was way bigger than his size, sewed another one which might quite be his size and the last one was equivalent to my own size.
I don't know where he is or whether he would be coming, but if he does come, I am already prepared to welcome him. We might be in the middle of a misunderstanding which I caused for some personal reasons, he's probably thinking or getting ready to take revenge on me one day, I just hope it will be today, a day where there would be quite a lot of happiness that I might end up losing control of myself, but if he does come, he's definitely going to make me stand on my toes, which I kinda need today to keep me on check.
“ So you're still hoping he would show up today I guess?....”, Jack asked me, I already knew who he was asking of but would just have to act oblivious to what's on his mind....“ who?”, I asked him. By the way he's looking at me right now, he already knows that I know what he's talking about.
“ I would be happy if he shows up, it was possibly be a violent visit or a visit filled with hate, but either way, I am hoping to see him today....”, I said to him, he just stood up, came to me and help me in placing my bow tie in order as he gently slapped his palm on the both cheeks of my chest to place my suit in order too.
“ You know it's a memorable day for my sister too, don't make a drama off today, I wouldn't like to see her worrying on such a day as today.... I hope you understand ”, he warned me, then placed his hands inside his trouser pocket and headed for the door.
He's serious with what he just said, I can tell, he's just acting calm because we're close friends and brothers too, but I can tell that his sister's happiness is way beyond our friendship or brotherhood, guess I have to hid to his warning and keep them in mind.
Now we're driving to the Church, we all were inside a limo, me and Jack, two other friends from the Orphanage and one of my friend who was in the City, a friend who got me into the movie industry.
“ I just hope you guys are sober for today's activities, you guys drank a lot celebrating my bachelor's night....”, I said to them as they burst out with laughter, understanding my joke, they began making comments about the joke I just made while Jack began speaking with me.
“ My sister is already carrying your child, I wonder if she's going to give birth to an a**hole like you or if it's going to be a child filled with love, mother's love you know....”, he said, making a joke to cool the nervous look creeping into my face, I guess he's just as observant as Jackie, nothing slips them by without their attention.
“ Let's just focus on calling the wedding a success first before talking about my handsome kid....”, I said. There was a bit of a sudden pause as if he was processing through my information, “ Handsome?, is she carrying a boy?....”, he questioned, curiosity taking the best of him, getting me to wear a smile on my face, taking my mind off the pressure of the wedding we're heading to.
“ We haven't gone to check it out though, the last time Jackie was there, she said the doctor said it's not yet about time to know....”, I said to him, a smile on his face, our focus on our small talk rather than the conversation the others were having.
It's time, she will be coming through the aisle with her hand on her twin brother's, he's the one going to hand her over to me rather than mother superior, Jack wanted to do the honor, despite playing the role of my best man in the absence of whom I wanted it to be, David.
She's now standing side by side with me as we face the Reverend father before us, mother superior standing some distance away from the father but she was at the altar too, my men standing in line at the side with Jack in front, the veil already uncovered by Jack when he handed his twin sister over to me.
The Reverend father began saying his speech, my attention on Jackie's face, can't get to divert my focus out that beautiful face of hers as she wore a beautiful memorable smile which can never get off my head for eternity.
We repeated all the Father wanted us to repeat, following his words right after another, making our vows, vows which I believe I will forever fight for and will never be allowed to be broken. This is a huge step we're taking, a step well inspired by Mother superior, without her, I don't believe that I would ever be ready to get to this point, the fear of Uncle Dale's divorce still hunts my feelings and I believe one way or the other, we will never get to such point of destruction.
“ Is anyone against the future of this two?, He better speaks now or forever remain silent....”.
“ I'm.... My name is David Dale and this marriage will never be a success as far as I am well alive....”.
