The Wedding

[21st march, 2021]

It was supposed to be Alexa's happiest day but now it had become her worst nightmare. Alexa felt her heart was ripped apart by a large hand as her eyes rested on the adulterous couple before her.

Susan, her stepsister and Jack, the loving fiancé, walked slowly down the aisle.

"I am going to give her a piece of my mind!” Alexa thought fiercely as she made her way out of her blind spot but she was held back by a strong grip.

"Where do you think you are going?" Hank rudely asked the girl in his hands.

"Dad, you ...you are aware?" Alexa exclaimed in disbelief.

"Ha-ha...of course you are aware, this is a major marriage after all, but dad, that's my marriage, what is my younger sister doing there right NOW?" Alexa screamed in anguish.

"Stop it before anyone sees us,” Hank waved his hands dismissively. "It's just a boy and you sisters shouldn't fight over him but you are to blame though, you know how important the day is, but you still slept like a log of wood only waking up now and look how indecent your dress is,” Hank scolded with a frown on his face as he scrutinized Alexa's dress.

“Nothing is wrong with the dress.” Alexa said, making an attempt to drag the gown down to her knees.

"Anyways, forget Jack, leave him for your sister, she saved the day after all. You should thank her." Her father continued.

"What? What did I just hear?” Alexa scoffed. "I should thank her for stealing my marriage and making me a joke on my wedding day?"

"Wow, you are a really heartless and incredible father. Your daughter slept very unusually and instead of investigating why, you just replaced her like a toy,” At this point, Alexa said in a chilly voice as her beautiful face got encased in a thick fog of anger.

"Vera, take care of this, I have a speech to give. This entire drama is giving me headaches," Hank as usual delegated authority to Vera as he walked away.

"Of course, my husband. I should be the one to handle this," Vera, her step-mom said with a wide grin.

As soon as Hank left, the obedient face faded into one of utter disdain as she grabbed unto Alexa.

"Hey, look there...open your eyes and see, don't they look like a happy couple?" Vera pointed towards the two people getting acknowledgement from the guest.

Alexa looked towards them and she smiled, "Of course, they are fitting, a dog and a bitch, what a crazy combination?"

"You unmannered child,” Vera threw a hard slap across Alexa's face, making it tilt to the side.

"Take her away and lock her up so that she does not cause any nuisance in here," Vera instructed the maids and they quickly dragged Alexa away amidst her protest.

“You! Why are you doing this?" Alexa looked at the once innocent Olly in front of her, her friend, her maid, her closest confidant.

"Me, are you talking to me right now?" Olly's face morphed into one of disdain. "Apart from your surname, what made you different from me? You are just a bitch with no mother, how dare you try to get all the good things whereas I, who deserve them, don't?"

"Young master Jack is not someone, a daughter born from dubious origins like you can possess. He is simply perfect, tall and manly, he shouldn't end up with an ugly person like you,"

Alexa felt something was wrong somewhere, she wasn't being narcissistic but she was damn sure she wasn't ugly. She quickly looked at the mirror and examined her appearance, wavy chestnut hair, green eyes and a graceful mesmerizing figure.

"You love Jack, don't you, Olly?" Alexa smiled in self loathing, scolding herself for not seeing it all this while.

"Yes, I love him, who doesn't but I know I can't obtain him, so since I can't you won't either. Young Miss Susan is the perfect person for him." Olly replied.

"Young Miss Susan,? Olly, you of all people should know how that thing came into this home, how miserable she has made our lives and you are siding with her, what deal did you receive?"

Olly came closer to Alexa as she puffed up her scrawny shoulders to declare dominance, “She promised me that I would marry Charles, her maternal cousin and I would be his wife,"

"Hahaha," Alexa couldn't help but burst out laughing as she looked at the thin Olly with thick features, calluses in her hands and a rough intimidating voice.

"Why are you laughing, you think it is funny?" Olly's face changed from mockery to anger as she berated Alexa.

Olly began laughing maniacally as her eyes sized up Alexa remembering that she was the reason Alexa woke up late on her wedding day. As soon as Alexa woke up early to begin preparing, she had served her a drugged tea which knocked her off.

“You must really love early morning cups of tea you know,” Olly commented aloud after her laughter died down.

Like a ticking clock, it clicked in her brain as Alexa remembered that she felt unusually drowsy after she drank her early morning tea.

"Yes, the tea, what did you put in there, tell me now?" She grabbed Olly with shaky hands but Olly pried off her hands quite easily.

"Alexa, your nightmare is just beginning, enjoy the process," Olly grinned as she left the room.

"Where is Alexa, she is your sister she should be present on your happy day, where did she run off to?" Jack frowned as he looked around for Alexa.

"Ehm, don't blame sister, she might still be angry at you and I for what we did? we...we…” Susan replied in a smooth voice as she rubbed Jack’s shoulder.

“That's enough,” Jack interrupted the soft spoken Susan who had tears hanging on her eyeballs.

Her shoulders shook with each word invoking the pity of anyone who saw her and it sure did it for Jack.

"She is not a baby, she should know that love can't be forced, I merely loved her because of a misunderstanding, but now that misunderstanding has been cleared and I found you, Susan, the girl who saved me so she is not needed,"

Jack paused briefly and rolled his eyes. He turned to face Susan and stroked her hair lovingly which instantly made her cheeks turn tomato red from blushing.

"I also went through the right channels and gave her gifts as compensation, so why is she angry, she is just greedy unlike you, my white moonlight,” Jack said in contempt.

"Stop that, people might see," Susan said shyly, pushing his hand away from her hair but her body was clinging tightly to Jack.

"Good, this is how it should be, my daughter should be the person enjoying all of this not that wench's daughter,” Vera smiled as she observed the shameless display of affection.

The truth was that Jack called off the wedding as early as a month ago, but he hid the news from Alexa and even pocketed the gifts.

"Let the main show begin.”
