"Does anyone have a wedding coming up soon with their spouse?"

The bride's sudden question threw the hall into total silence.

A white bird flew to the hall,and made a duck at the entrance then chirps before leaping up into the sky.

The couples -to-be were standing at the altar and the priest had just read the vow to the wife but she asked that instead of saying "I do".

A woman that was seated in one of the chairs in the front row gave her a look that threatens to break her bones if she doesn't quit her acting.

Everything has been going on perfectly...

The chest of the bride's moves up in her multi billion - dollar dress as she heaved out a deep breath.

Her fragile fingers curled up into a soft fist.

The priest casted her a look up from his glasses before looking back at the book in his hand,reading her the vow again.

"Do you,Angela Wilson,promise to have and love this man as..."

"Oh, priest..take a pause there."Angel's breath ruffles as she chuckled sadly.

Her mother and sister were passing her stares that could kill.

They were probably wondering what the heck she was doing in front of all these influential people.

Angela's eyes fell on the man's cold gaze.

He was sitting two chairs away from her sister.

She smiled at him, almost unnoticeable,but he seems to caught that as his thick brows furrowed,dangerously.

"I asked a question. What will you do if you find your to-be husband making out in the groom's area with another lady?"her eyes moves away from the man, now directed at the crowd,as she watched them speak to one another in hushed tones.

"Crazy, right?!"her maniac laughter fills the room.

A hand grips her arm and she turned to face her groom whose eyes were flaring up in anger.

"Why on earth would you even go to the groom's room? That's prohibited!"he queried,in a spat... quietly.

She scoffs then yanked her arm away from his grasp,pulling herself in a controlled state in order to prevent herself from murdering him.

Her sister rushed to her side and brought a pink handkerchief out of her skimpy gown's outer pocket to touch up Angela's face.

"Sister, just move on with the wedding. Don't cause a chaos else, people would think you're crazy. They won't even have faith in your words.

You know how long it took for you to convince mom to make you get married?

Now, don't screw that up - you might just fvck up your chance of building a family and remain single till earth grows an ear." Her sister's face contorted in disgust as she uttered those words.

To the crowd,she is a caring sister, removing the beads of sweats on her sister's face,and trying to clam her down, but she's just a thorn in the flesh for Angela.

Angela pecked her sister, Lena's cheeks, getting Lena's eyes to pop out in shock - not a pleasant one, but one dreaded.

Lean's teeth meshed together,as she trembles and fought with the anger boiling up in her not to burst out that moment.

She could just slap the damn out of Angela's face.

She's always been known to wreak havoc whereever she goes.

A bad luck girl that even killed their father she is!

"So? Bride,what do you plan to do?"her mother's strict voice pierced through the thin air strongly...as if daring her,Angela, to do what she,was panning to do...but Angela has got another plan.

Lena went back to assume her seat.

Angela shot stares back at her mother who wondered where such a scared kitten, erstwhile, suddenly got a kite that took her on a ride in the moon that gives power.

"Babe,it was just a misunderstanding,and you should have called me and I would have clarified the situation!"Daniel rasped.

He still was not apologizing,neither feeling or talking apologetic.

Haha. What a crazy life she's lived!

Angela's head turned to the priest,who adjusted his glasses and wondered - has the bride been possessed by a spirit?

Or...

His eyes darted to the side in his glasses,as he contemplates - his mind flashing back to the previous day's incident.

The evil spirit he casted out of the man that shaved the head of the six women he tried to marry bald, leading him to be imprisoned for times..

The priest's gasp.

That spirit that is allergic to the joy of the person it possessed!

Is it the one in her?

"Priest,what shall we do to a man that cheats on his wife? No, fiancee.

Since he hasn't wedded yet."she pulled her eyes up at him, expecting his reply.

The priest was snapped back into reality.

"What are you talking about? This is our wedding."Daniel stated,gruffly,grabbing her wrist,roughly.

"Everyone,"he stared at the crowd whilst Angela was prinking at him in steaming rage.

"I apologize for what happened here today. My wife seems to be out of it and.."

Before he could complete his statement,Angela withdrew her hand from his, sharply,and quite savagely, shooting him a glare that could compel one to take the rope.

"What do you mean wife?"she pitched.

The people shook their heads in disappointment.

Her mother sighed from where was and crossed her legs.

"Mom,do something!"Lena mumbled in a strangled voice.

"Just enjoy the free show for now,Lena."Abigail rubs her hair,lovingly.

Several bottles of alcohols were on the table and the pillows were on the floor, everything was in a disorganized state.I let out a breath. It would never get old. It's like a circle, one I'm use to getting caught in.I roll my sleeves up, dropping my bag on the couch and packing the bottles one after the other, arranging them in a carton.After tidying up everywhere, I slept off... My senses awakened the next day from bites on my earlobe."Babe.."his breath fan my neck.I roll away from his hold, wanting to get some more sleep but his scent csme to my nostrils again as he scooted closer."Babe, I need money...hm?"

I snap my fingers at him before he blabs on.I enter the car and he came to the driver's seat, sparing me a look from the rear view mirror."You called me father earlier today.."he had a funny expression on his face.I sighs, resting my head on my chin."Why would I?""You said pere which means father in French when you were rushing to save the miss."

She ask softly as we both sat in the ward, only the mixture of our smell and the curious sound of our hearts were in earshot."Not yet." I responded and she nod."Good. Don't watch it..."she says."I have too. I can't escape it forever." I reply.She seem to think about it for some seconds before nodding."You've grown.."I heard her mutter as she looks at my chest.A breath got stuck in my throat before I stifle a laughter."Hey, what are you talking about it? And stop looking at me passionately like that, it makes me feel you're in love with me." She raise her eyes to the level of mine and bore them into my soul as if she hid a hold in my pupils.I furrowed my brows and she chuckle."I am straight, girl. And oh, I am not marri

    MIGUEL...I had called her phone out of panic. I knew she would be disoriented by the speech her mother was giving to the press.Never knew she would be more pained by my betrayal.After trying her number for the fourth time and it says she wasn't picking, I called for fifth time when it says the phone was unreachable.And, it wasn't long before Pierre, the bearer of bad news came forth, shoving a video in my face."She...she threw her bag from the rooftop....she.. she ...she fell..she fell.." he explained out of breaths.I ran out of the office, expecting him to follow me but he stood there, reading comments and rewatching the video again from the commenters' perspectives."Fvck it, Pierre! I am not gonna drive myself!!" I yell at him."Oh!" The laptop slides out of his grip and he ran past me to the basement."Give the keys, I am driving.." I snap my fingers as he made to get into the seat, snatching the keys from him and he jumps out of the car so I could get in.I insert the key

    I roll over on the surface, it was soft yet so unsettling.I touch my head, feeling things are a bit of a burden there before I open my eyes, taking in the environment.I stare at the white ceiling, the one I was always met with after several check-ups in the past.I roll to my side and found him staring at me, relief washing over him."How do you feel?" He asks, moving his hand closer to my forehead but I jerk my head back, his hand going into contact with the pillow instead."Why are you here?" I question, trying to recollect my last memory and the one I got was when I fell on the rooftop."I will have the doctor run a check-up, you don't look too well," he says instead, standing up from the chair."Why are you here?" I ask, louder this time and with my heart picking a dangerous race to run.The usual smell of hospital rush into my nostrils and I sigh weakly, trying to control the urge to puke."I..I am sorry.." he goes to say and if it weren't for the migraine, I would have burst

    ANGELA....I step into the room, expecting to see exciting faces welcome me but I was, instead, at the mercy of nervous looks and the evading of my gaze."See? I told you that would be short-lived." My second chimes in my head.My pupils dilates in confusion as they graze over them - I had thought we had hit it off the other day.Janice stood up from her seat before coming to grab me to the rooftop."Janice..." I smile, excited that she gave me face today.Yesterday, she left no time for us to catch up, finding excuses upon excuses...loads of them actually, for her to avoid me.But after the meeting yesterday, I conversed with other workers and they made me feel welcomed."Don't you... don't you dare smile like that," her breath came out ruffle, her pinky finger pointing at me.I tilt my head to the left, my right leg taking a step ahead of the left, smiling again."Whay is up, Janice?

    ABIGAIL...When I heard from the manager from our second store that he received a message from barrister to process the employment of Angela, I was curious and called him over immediately."It isn't comfortable to pretend to be cool and have breakfast together like this. Why don't we just let the termites in our hearts out?" He said."The last time I ate a braised chicken soup was when Wilson was still alive.I was going to eat in his remembrance today but a piece of news turn the good mood over the fence, and all i taste right now is poison!" I slam the fork in the table.He doesn't seem fazed by me. He had never been. I only managed to chain him down a bit years ago but he had broken lose from my grapple.I grab a napkin, cleaning my mouth with it."Collins, I remember my husband sponsoring your education to law school.
