Knight in Shining Suit のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

1. MOTIF: a dominant color. In choosing a color motif for a wedding, keep in mind the colors that mean something in your relationship, and what you want to attract in your future.   “We’d like the colors moss green and brown,” Estelle, the happy bride-to-be was saying to me and my best friend Nicole. I watched her dreamy eyes and her happy smile and I couldn’t help wondering if I looked as ridiculous as that when I was planning my own wedding.                            Nicole smiled back at her enthusiastically. “That’s a good combination. So…” “Jungle-like,” I suggested, cutting Nicole off mid-sentence. Estelle stared at me for a moment and her dreamy smile threatened to fade from her beautiful face. “Excuse me?” Nico

DIAMOND: The strongest and hardest mineral. Commonly used in engagement rings to symbolize the unbreakable bond between a man and a woman.   For the next few weeks, I spent my time job hunting. I tried to steer clear of weddings for now. I knew that I was still in pain, but acknowledging the pain didn’t really mean adding up to it or provoking it in whatever way. But by end of the week, I still had nothing. I was still the same clueless girl I was weeks ago. “Hang in there, sweetheart.” Nicole said to me one night we decided to check out the new bar in the city called Oil Rig. “You’ll find one. Although, you would have found one already, if you just went back to wedding planning. You were famous before. People loved your work. It would have been easy to get a job with the competition.” I rolled my eyes. “What’s the point of planning other people’s weddings when I don’t believe in

5.BRIDAL CAR:The car that carries the Bride and the Groom after the ceremony; usually adorned with flowers and signage saying “Just Married!” I picked out a bright lavender outfit that accented my curves, bared my shoulders and exposed my long perfect legs. I was going to tease Bryan… with something he never had. Something that he should have been having by now, had he waited.I used to be a little bit on the conservative side when I was with him. But they’d stripped me of almost everything so what did I have to lose?I went to the salon to color my hair. I tried a multi-colored hairstyle. Blonde, red, reddish brown, dark brown and a few black strands. When the hairdresser was finished, I thought I looked cool and my hair looked stylish. As a benefit, no one could tell what my natural hair color really was.No contacts anymore. When

WEDDING GARTERWorn by brides above the knee. Nowadays, wedding garters can come in different materials, and colors. After dancing with Adam, Nicole and I switched and I was back in Ryder’s arms once again.“Hmmm… I thought you weren’t going to dance with any other lady aside from me,” I said, faking a cross expression on my face.He chuckled. “Well, I figured, I needed to score with the women in your life, starting with your mother. I danced with the rest because I didn’t want them to think I was only impressing your mother. Then I danced with your nieces and the little girls because I thought you’d think that was sweet. I danced with your best friend because I needed her approval, too.”“What’s the verdict?”He leaned closer to me and said, “Your soul is sold, love. I’m afraid I am the highe

HONEYMOON:A passionate period following a newfound love or relationship.A period of harmony. It was Bryan and Geena’s first month anniversary. I know not because I was keeping tabs, or because I received an invitation for another celebration. I doubt they’ll be inviting me to any special occasions in their lives anymore. I could care less. I know it’s their first month anniversary because that’s how long I have been smiling for real.I had successfully stopped myself from thinking about Bryan and the what ifs and what could have beens. I knew things happen for a reason and someday, I would be thankful that they happened that way.I was beginning to smile more… and for real. Especially when I looked at the ring on my finger and remembered that I made one wonderful guy a promise that I would allow mys
