It's been a week since the baby shower and gender reveal party. Giovanni has been AWOL, always disappearing every single time I set my eyes on him. He wakes up before me and comes back after I have gone to sleep. I didn't know what to think about it and thought of confronting him, but all he said was "I need you to follow me somewhere this evening. Dress formally" before leaving the room.I didn't want to think much about his secretive behaviour, but that didn't stop my mind from running wild. Was it because I had added weight and I didn't look as sexy as I was for him?sighed.!I got up from bed to get ready. I walked to the bathroom, turned on the shower, and immediately hopped in. I had an hour and thirty minutes to get ready.I walked back inside the room once I was done showering and dried off my hair and body. I walked into the closet to look for a dress, shoes, and other necessities, keeping them safely before taking my seat in front of the mirror to have my makeup done.I did
It's been ten years since I gave birth to my beautiful daughter Ginevra, ten years since i got remarried to Giovanni. I still couldn't believe this was my life. I have a caring, loving husband with beautiful children.My mind drifted to my best friend, and I smiled. Vicky and Richard got married two years after Giovanni and I got married. A year later, they gave birth to their beautiful baby girl, Cassidy. Five years ago, she gave birth to their youngest child, Ace.Ariella. Giovanni's mom also found a man of her own, which was kind of weird at first. Giovanni really didn’t like the idea of her dating, saying he didn’t want her to replace his dad, but after Ariella and I had sat him down , explaining to him that she wasn’t replacing his dad and just wanted someone to love her. Giovanni had no other option than to agree, giving his blessing to his mom and Lorenzo , Ariella’s husband.Since Lorenzo has children of his own, a boy and a girl, Giovanni had gained siblings and was protectiv
I couldn't be happier that it was my last day of college. Without a doubt, I have liked my time here, but I am prepared to move on to another aspect of my life. I'm currently getting ready in my apartment room to go to a brand-new club that just opened with my best friend and roommate, Victoria. Currently, we are attempting to choose an outfit for me.“ What do you think of this one, Roy?” Vicky emerged from the wardrobe carrying a stunning black short jumpsuit.“ Vicky!” I remarked, gazing at it doubtfully, "I don't know, it's awfully short and definitely not my style."“ Roy, you need to tone it down a bit. You need to go out and meet guys now that you're 21, and you can't do that if you're dressed like a nun.” she remarked, “ It will also fit you wonderfully. Just give it a try first, please.”"Ugh... fine," I took the clothes from her as I walked into the bathroom. Though we have been friends since diaper days, I'm still not comfortable standing naked in front of her. I must say t
I woke up exhausted after Vicky came back with the guy, Derek, who I later found out was his name. The last thing I remember was both of them trying to change my mind that I should loosen up a bit, and we ended up having a drinking challenge of some sort. I stretched my hands to the sound of my phone with my eyes half closed as I picked up the call, not bothering to check who it was."Hello.""Hey, sweetie, How are you? ""I'm fine, mum, and good morning,” I heard the sound of chuckling as I wondered what was fun."It's 2:30 in the afternoon, sweetie," I turned to the side of my bed as I looked at the wall clock to see that it was really two in the afternoon."Went out last night with Vicky. I'm really exhausted. " My mom and I are really close, so I tell her everything from my first crush down to my first kiss."I see Victoria is still the same," she laughed."Could you please come by later this evening? Your father and I have something to tell you. ""Of course, no problem.""All ri
I couldn't hear anything else while I tried to comprehend what I had just heard.Did she just say I'm getting harried or was it parried, I could have sworn it sounded just like married. I looked up to see the three of them staring at me."Ahhaaaaaa." I laughed so hard to the point of tears. I mean, I always knew my mum was a prankster and I was her favourite victim. That's what I loved more about her, and I must say this tops it all."Seriously, mum, wow," I wiped my eyes, "nice one, you almost got me there for a second," I smiled."It's not a joke, sweetie. You are getting married." I looked at three of them, confused. My head started to buzz. I tried to make a connection between the words coming out of her mouth and what they meant." You're joking right." When I spoke again, the smile was wiped off my face. I noticed the look on their faces. I couldn't help but wonder. It made no sense. Me? Getting married? To whom? Why? I just recently turned 21 and just graduated from college. I'
When I was finally ready, Vicki picked out a red dress with lace around the neck area. My dress hugged my body from every part and had a slit from my knees downward. My hair was put in a low bun while allowing some strands to fall on my face. My red hair looked darker than ever. After the hair and makeup, which was nicely done, a smoky eye with a red lipstick made me daring and ready to go." You definitely look hot. Too bad I don't swing the other way, but damn girl..." Vicki said, smiling at me, " I'm so sure you're going to blow his mind away."“Thanks to you.” I said, smiling. “ Though I doubt I'll be blowing anyone's mind out.”" I'm definitely sure you would. You still haven't told me the name of the guy yet," she said, shoving me little. " like seriously, you had a whole week to tell me about the marriage but decide to tell last night” She sighed dramatically.“ I know, I'm sorry. I just needed a moment to wrap my head around it and get used to the idea of getting married to a
After getting home, I went straight up to my room, ignoring anyone's attempt to talk to me, taking off my damn dress (I was angry, so I couldn’t careless about a dress ) and got into an oversize t-shirt and shorts, which I love more.I finally plopped into my bed, remembering everything that had just happened a few hours ago and the fact that I would be getting married three weeks from now.Ugh!Great!just great.There won't be any engagement party according to Adeline due to the fact that my so-called husband is too busy to even have the time, so I was given an engagement ring, which was also a family heirloom passed down from generations. It is huge and very breath-taking and definitely causes millions.My phone rang, snapping me out of my thoughts, not bothering to check who was calling."What?" I said, and immediately pitied the person at the receiving end."Whoa whoa, what got your pants in a twist?" my best friend replied, lifting my spirits.“ I'm sorry Vicki, I'm just not in
I was awoken by the bright ray of sunshine on my face, and I groaned loudly when I realized I didn't put the curtains down before going to bed.Now that I was awake, I couldn't help but think how my life was over since it was my wedding day. I decided to freshen up and wait for the makeup artist and those involved in getting me ready.The makeup artist had done an amazing job on my face, and even my gown couldn't look more beautiful and stunning, but I couldn't bring myself to be happy, even a tiniest bit.After getting ready, I was left alone in the room.The wedding was taking place at the Reeves family Church and the reception was at the Hill's Hotel, which happens to be one of the biggest hotels, and I didn't expect less since they were all against my idea of having a quiet wedding.My mum and Adeline wanted the best of the best for me.I was interrupted by a soft knock on the door." Hey munchkin," my brother said, walking into the room with a smile that I was sure made girls mel
