Mercy's Pov
beautiful chandeliers are hanging on the ceiling, sparkling with excitement just like my eyes, they can not hide the excitement and happiness they contain.
I'm in a designer huge princess dress that perfectly hugs my body, it has a lot of sparkles and sparkling shoes, my hair is done in an updo, and top it with a sparkling tiara.
Just like in the fairytales that I watched when I was little, I feel like Cinderella except that I don't have an evil step mom and sisters.
Everything is bright and sparkling, It's my wedding day, the day I say I do to the love of my life, my mom walks with me down the aisle to meet my husband to be, we walk slowly to the Greek God standing before me, he grinned at me, we reach him, mom gives him my hand.
The ceremony starts we exchange vows, I feel like I am floating everything feels surreal, then the pastor asks " if anyone is against this union, they should stand up" the pastor announces.

Tom's povI love Mercy a lot, it hurts that she is in denial but we all know tat she needs help, I have tried the best that I can to show her that I love her, for Christ's sake, I delivered my heart in a silverplate but she doesn't seem to care.I'm running out of ideas, there's only one person that can help me now,I fished out my phone in my back jeans pocket and called Grace, 15 minuetes tops, she's now approaching the bar counter where I have bee sitting for half an hour."this better be good, I had to cancel my appointments with my clients" Grace cringed when she met Tom's deadly glare. "Okay I take thar back my clients can wait, that look can paralyze a person, what's eating you?" She sat down signaling the smitten bartender over to her.I snarled when the bartender did not respond to Grace, she's rather busy gawking at me. She looked down in embarrassment, Grace chuckled "okay, what's wrong, with your looks I'm sure this happens daily

Mercy's povPacing back and forth in the living room, my anxiety disorder starting to kick in, I haven't had many attacks lately, for once I felt like a normal person with Tom and Grace by my side what I saw today made me feel like the fool I have always been, they have been having an affair right under my nose.Apart of me wants to believe that there's a valid reason why the lipstick stains were on Tom's chest but another part of me thinks that the answer to that is obvious.Tom did not bother to explain to me why was Grace's lipstick on his chest and why was he leaning so close to her, rather he freshened up and went to bed while my mind was going to burst at any moment from overthinking.I mean shouldn't he try and clarify this to me, or defend himself like other men do when they are caught cheating instead of playing it cool."Tom!" I screamed his name taking large strides to our bedroom, I did not find him there, but the bed is unt

Mercy's POVI stirred in my sleep feeling like someone hit my head with a break, my body felt numb, inhaling the most awful smell ever and a very irritating beep sound that made my head hurt worse than it did when I regain my consciousness, peeling my eyes open a bright light glared right at me, the lights in the room blinded me for a second I closed my eyes swiftly and opened them again this time slowly adjusting to the bright light.I don't remember climbing the bed, I only remember taking my anxiety pills, anti depress they did not help and I resorted to sleeping pills, they did not knock me out for 2 hours I might have taken a lot but I needed the voices in my head to shut down, who could've helped me to bed?.Beep! beep! The noise brought me back to reality I gazed at the white ceiling which does not look like the one I am used to, I tried to wake up to scout where I am and what's causing this unbearable noise, my arm hurt, I looked at it, my eyes widen when I

MERCYUnfolding the wrinkled paper, reading it for the hundredth time, tears burning my flesh, the warm liquid gushing down my cheeks. This is how I have been living my life since I came back from the hospital, to an empty apartment, Grace handed me a letter and left without a word, my entire world turned into shambles and it's all my fault.The first time opened the little envelope I felt a pang of pain within the depths of my heart, only a few words were jotted down // always have been and will always be in Inlove with you, regards Tom your husband, take care.//I did not know what to do, all I know is that I wanted to relieve the pressure I felt in my chest, my closest friend anxiety was so close for a second visit this week, Instead of welcoming my dearest friend's visit, I broke everything breakable in the house, photo frames, plates and a lot more.I crunched the piece of paper and threw it in the bin, the funny thing is every nig
