Dear Diary, Please Keep It A Secret - Chapter 16
Her biggest dream was to marry him. But when 'she' barged in and shouted for objection, her so-called perfect life was at risk! It's for you to find out whether Mikaela will ever be able to finally settle down with Ray and receive the happiness that she deserves.
Chapter 16
"Oh my gosh, Blair! I am so nervous. What am I going to do? This is my first time doing this shit." My hands intertwined with each other repeatedly as I fidgeted with them.
"Calm down, Mikaela. It's just a wedding ceremony. You don't have to be so nervous as if thousands of people are looking at you..." Blair chuckled and stopped. "Oh wait, there will be thousands of people looking at you later." Blair added and chuckled even more.
"Blair, you're making it worse." I narrowed my eyes. I had already told Ray not to invite so many people. At first, I wanted it to be only both of us. But he insisted to make it big as he wanted to make it memorable for me. Marrying him is the greatest gift to me, I don't need anything. Nothing else mattered in this world except Lola, and him. I walked to the mirror and looked at myself. I am a lucky woman. God, thank you so much. For bringing Lola and Ray to this world - To MY world. I smiled to myself.
"Stop smiling there like an idiot. I'm so jealous of you." Blair pouted. I knew she was just joking. Apart from me, she was also the happiest woman in this world. Her boyfriend, James took a long vacation just to go traveling with her. Well, it was supposed to be a secret actually but James told me about it anyway. James' plan was to propose to her under the Eiffel Tower.
"You're lucky, Mikaela. You're lucky that your wedding is so grand and we can even have a clear view of the Eiffel Tower here. Nevertheless, you're going to Lyon and then Bordeaux, and lastly Santorini in Greece for your honeymoon..." She grumbled. "AND!" She pointed her finger index at me. "James and I have to take care of Lola for you." She glared at me.
"Oh come on, Blair! It isn't that bad right? Well, at least you can gain experience of taking care of a baby and decide if you want a child in the future." I smiled to her and patted her shoulder gently. "Your complaints never end, eh?" I giggled and exited through the door so I could get ready outside the church.
"You know what, Mikaela?" Blair intertwined her hands with mine. "I'm glad that you found Ray. I'm so happy for you right now." Blair smiled widely.
"Oh really? I thought I just heard someone say she was jealous?" I retorted sarcastically which caused the both of us to burst out into laughter. "Mikaela, just so you know. I'll always be there when you need me, alright?" Blair smiled. As the staff opened the door, Blair led me in. Blair is my bridesmaid and also the one who leads me in because I lost contact with my step-mother few years ago.
"Just calm down, don't be nervous. After all, isn't it your dream to marry Ray?" Blair whispered and smiled to the people as if we were concentrating on our footsteps. Every step I'd taken told me that I was near to my happiness - my perfect life. Every step I'd taken told me that this marriage is going to last forever. Every step I'd taken made me recall those memories that I had with Ray. I smiled to Lola as I spotted her. James was holding her in the front seat. We approached Ray and Blair passed my hand to Ray's.
"Don't ever make her cry." Blair warned and smiled widely and stepped back after that. Ray only nodded and returned her smile. We turned to the father after the people sat down.
"At this time, I'll ask you, Ray Vellutini and you, Mikaela Midnight, to face each other and take each other's hands. Ray, will you take Mikaela to be your wife, your partner in life and your one true love? Will you cherish her and love her today, tomorrow and forever? Will you trust and honor her, laugh with her and cry with her? Will you be faithful through good times and bad, in sickness and in health, as long as you both shall live?" The father in white robe asked and looked at Ray.
"Hell yeah." Ray grinned as his eyes landed on mine.
"Mikaela, will you take Ray to be your husband, your partner in life and your one true love? Will you cherish him and love him today, tomorrow and forever? Will you trust and honor him, laugh with him and cry with him? Will you be faithful through good times and bad, in sickness and in health, as long as you both shall live?" The father turned to me and asked with a smile. I hesitated for a moment. It wasn't because I didn't trust Ray or I didn't want to marry him. As I said, marrying him is my biggest dream. I wanted to say yes but something seemed to stop me from saying it. I don't know. It was like a string, pulling me further and further away from Ray. Ray shook my hand gently and his eyes were questioning mine. What are you doing now, Mikaela! Just say yes already! I thought to myself. I inhaled deeply and was about to answer when a voice beside us stopped me.
"Stop!" The person yelled. Ray and I turned around.
