CHAPTER SEVEN

EVA'S POV

"Just you wait dearest wife, I am going to make your life and sister's so miserable that you all will regret Crossing paths with Clark Anderson... just you mark my words." He said as he walked away.

"But I didn't do anything!!!! Clark!!! it's not my fault... I swear I didn't do anything!!" I kept on screaming till I jolted away.

"What sort of dream was that??" I asked myself as I was drenched in sweat.

I knew that I felt some kind of way the moment I saw him but having such a dream about him was something I never expected.

And the stupid alarm clock just had to wake me up.

"Eva!!!! You better do something about that stupid alarm clock of yours!! It is supposed to wake only you up and not everyone else!!!!" My mother screamed from the hallway.

If only she knew I was more upset than she was.

I got up and went to freshen up and as I was having my bath, I reminisced about the dream I had and suddenly, I started feeling so hot.

I quickly got out of the shower and got dressed up.

Rachel walked into my room as she sat on my bed with a long face.

"What's going on Rachel??? Why is your face sour??" I asked.

"I am nervous Eva... I know I've always dreamt of having a perfect wedding with a perfect man but I am honestly so nervous."

"Nervous about what exactly???"

"About everything... as soon as Clark asked mom to proceed with the wedding arrangements, I just had this weird feeling deep within me."

"Don't tell me you are already having cold feet??" I asked as I raised my eyebrow.

"It's not cold feet Eva... I just don't know what is going on... I am just nervous and I want everything to go perfectly well."

"You don't have to be nervous Rachel... Clark seems to love and adore you and so he would do everything to make sure it goes smoothly."

"Will you assist me in doing everything?? Like going to check my wedding gown, ring and all of that with Clark."

"With Clark??" I asked as I suddenly got nervous.

"Yes... Clark said he would go with me side by side to get whatever we needed and I want you to come with me." She said.

"Rachel, you know that I work and won't have the time to do that with you and Clark."

"If you know you care about me as your sister, you would suspend work and do this with me."

This was not a good idea in the slightest bit.

Just one visit for the very first time I already had dreams about him not to talk of going out with him frequently with my sister.

"Rachel you have mom... why me??"

"Mom is old fashioned Eva."

"And I am not??"

"You forgot that you are just two years older than me???"

"Okay fine... I will go with you."

"Thank you so much sister." She said as she hugged me.

"When are we starting this wedding shopping??"

"Well we can start now if you want... Clark is ready." She said.

"Hell no... you just told me about it now and we are starting today???"

"Well we want the wedding to be held as soon as possible... so should I inform Clark that we are ready??"

I sighed deeply because I knew for a fact that if I declined helping her with her wedding preparations, I was never going to hear the end of it, especially from my mom.

"Fine... tell him." I said, rolling my eyes.

"You are the best... trust me." She said as she walked out.

I looked at myself in the mirror and knew I couldn't just wear casual clothes and so I changed my outfit.

After changing, I did a very light makeup so I would look a bit good and who knows maybe I might find my own prince charming.

About an hour later, Rachel came to inform me that Clark's Limo was outside.

I was excited and anxious at the same time.

As soon as we went out, Clark came out of the limo looking dashing as always and he opened the door for us.

"Hello ladies." He said smiling.

"Hey baby... thanks for picking us up." Rachel said as she kissed him.

"Anytime love."

"Hello brother in law." I said.

"Hello to you too sister in law... you look nice." He said.

"Thank you and you too." I said as I blushed a bit.

We entered the limo and I must say it was an amazing experience, especially since it was my first time.

I was sitting at the end of the car while Clark and my sister sat together.

They chatted while I got myself busy playing candy crush on my cell phone.

Thirty minutes later, we arrived at a wedding shop.

I could see the excitement in my sister as she saw a lot of wedding gowns.

We entered and she started Trying different ones.

It was exciting at first but got a little bit boring soon after because Rachel couldn't make a choice.

As for me, I saw a beautiful bridesmaid dress and I wanted to try it on and so I took it and went into another dressing room.

After putting it on, I couldn't reach for the zipper at the back of the dress and I tried as much as I could to zip it but to no avail.

Just when I was giving up, a hand zipped the dress up for me slowly and carefully.

I assumed it was one of the ladies I met working there who helped me.

"Thank you so much." I said.

"You are welcome."

Wait a minute... I turned almost immediately after I heard the voice.

"Clark??!!!"
