My Emotionless Goddess

A month passed by and summer arrived. The day of their wedding finally arrived. The girls were seated around a table having a girl’s talk. They had wanted to throw a bachelorette party for Miranda but the boys refused with the excuse that they were pregnant. However, they were allowed to spend time together on the night before the wedding, here they were, catching up and reminiscing about their olden days.

” I can’t believe Miranda is finally getting married.” Ava said happily. She was happy with her friend.

“‘ Me too. I was afraid she would remain single forever. With her character, of course one couldn’t help but worry.” Lucia commented.

” She deserves it. Everyone deserves to find their other half and live happily.” Stacy commented.

” What about you? When are you getting married?” Lucia asked, directing the question to Stacy.

” Who? Me?” Stacy asked, trying to about their gaze. A clear indication she was guilty of something.

” Who else if not you?” Ava retorted, narrowing her eyes at Stacy.

” I am already married.” Stacy finally announced making Ava and Lucia gasp loudly while Miranda just stared at her, no emotions on her face.

” Traitor! How could you get married without telling us?” Ava said in an accusatory tone.

” I was blackmailed to getting married okay, I also don’t know how it happened.” Stacy replied, heaving a helpless sigh.

” What do you mean by that?” Lucia was the one who asked for clarity.

” That old fox pretended to be on the verge of dying and begged me to marry his grandson. They were in cahoots with my parents so I gave in to make him happy. Only to realise later I was tricked.” Stacy narrated.

” How could you fall for such a cheap trick? You are a doctor afterall.”Lucia was finding it hard to believe how dumb their friend could get to fall for such. Even she could tell that it was all a calculated move.

” Blame the pregnancy hormones. I used emotions to think rather than my head. So here I am, a married woman with no marriage ceremony.” Stacy said, lamenting her fate. But above everything, she was happy nevertheless. It didn’t matter how they got married, to her as long as Gabriel was the groom, she would willingly marry him even without a wedding ring. That’s how much she loved her man.

” Aren’t you going to have an official wedding ceremony? We took an oath to be each other’s bridesmaids.” Ava said.

” After I give birth to my baby. They said that I could ask for any wedding I want. But I am in no rush, wedding or not, I am happy he married me. I’ll wait until my child is big enough to be the ring bearer.” Stacy said proudly.

” You are whipped. I can see that.” Lucia commented. She could see the happiness and affection glittering in their friend’s eyes whenever her husband was mentioned.

” I wouldn’t agree less.” Stacy confirmed.

” We are happy for you girl.” Ava said emotionally. The girls who met and became friends finally were growing up and forming their families. She couldn’t be happier.

” Okay, let’s eat and celebrate our friendship. After tonight, I don’t know when we will get the time to sit together again.” Lucia said emotionally. The older they grew, the more responsibilities piled up and the less time they could spend together.

That night, the girls chatted until late at night before they decided to retire for the night. Tomorrow, one of them will be leaving their bachelor’s State. The girls were happy.

The following morning, the girls were woken up by the sounds of the chopper.

” It’s barely four in the morning, what’s with that noise?” Ava grumbled softly.

” Good morning my future wife.” A chirpy voice greeted me.

” What the hell Justin! We are trying to get some rest here.” Lucia yelled frustrated.

” Wake up and get ready for sleepyheads. The wedding starts in an hour’s time.” Kiel replied. He was damn sure that his wifey was fuming mad. If you wanted to get Lucia’s bad book, all you had to do was interrupt her sleep and you’d get it.

” It’s barely five in the morning.” Ava shouted ” leave us alone.” She was sleepy and the morning chilliness was doing nothing to help. Their house was located near a Beach and the cold waves from the Sea were killing them to sleep some More.

“The stylists will be here in five minutes, get ready.” Justin announced and the girls heard their retrieving steps.

” Aaarrrgh! This is frustrating!” Ava complained.

” Who gets Married at this hour, I think that guy has gone nuts.” Lucia added, earning a sharp glare from Miranda.

As promised, the stylists flooded the room in five minutes time. Every girl got to be attended separately by a different stylist.

In an hour’s time, everybody was ready with the exception of Miranda who was getting dolled up. Of course, the girls understood why the extra attention, after all she was the ceremony girl.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Thirty minutes later, she was ready. The stylists left the room immediately after their work was done.

” You look so beautiful Miranda.” Ava was the first one to complement the wedding girl who blushed. Even she couldn’t come to terms with the fact that the lady in the reflection was really her. It was unbelievable.

” Yeah I can’t believe it’s you Miranda. The wedding gown is a perfect match. Whoever chose it has good eyes.” Stacy added. The dress was beautifully designed. But wait… Something felt eerily familiar with the design.

” Is this your work Lucia?” Stacy inquired after realisation hit her.

” I would have been disappointed if you didn’t recognize my creation.” Lucia said with pride.

” I must say that I am impressed. You took on account every feature of her body while designing this. ” Said Stacy. The dress was a perfect fit. It accentuated every curve on her body as it clung on her like a second skin. It was embedded with rhinestones and rubies, but not enough to corrupt the purity of the dress. It had a sweetheart neckline and was backless. The dress gave off the vibe of an ice cold Queen, perfectly matching her emotionless Aura.

” Of course, I have to make sure that my friend looks the most beautiful on her wedding day.” Lucia said brimming with pride. As a designer, she was dedicated to her work and Loved it whenever people commented nicely on her work. It gave her the motivation to work harder.

” I want a dress like this one on my wedding.” Ava said, pouting lightly. She was envious of how good looking her friend was in her wedding dress.

” Definitely, you just need to say the word and you’ll get sorted.” Lucia assured.

The door to their room was knocked lightly before someone sauntered inside.

” Miranda my old friend.” August greeted me. She was Justin’s Manager back in the days he was in the entertainment industry. She was also the one who fanned the news about Miranda kissing Justin on that fateful night. But she would never admit that to anyone.
