"Excuse me, people..." she said to the makeup artists and hairstylists who went away leaving the two of the friends.
"What is it?" Bryce asked sipping the glass of her wine as she was comfortably leaning back on the seat, wearing a bathrobe.
Blair's hair was half tied up while the rest let loose on her both sides of the shoulders.
"By the way, you are going to make a very pretty bride," the best friend complimented when Blair rolled her eyes as she hushed her up.
"Shut up and listen to me..." Blair said when she continued, "I can't conceive..."
"What do you want to conceive anyway?" Bryce asked with a narrowed brow and Blair, again, rolled her eyes.
"Are you drunk, already?" she asked with an irritated face and Bryce nodded saying, "Because it's my best friend's fucking wedding."

Black Lace 1. INSANE FATHER.
"What the hell! Where is my money? You insane woman! You did that again, didn't you?" a man, subtle around his face, unable to stand properly spoke with such aggression in his voice."What is it, Rowan? Why the hell are you shouting early this morning?" a lady, graceful and with her facial expression looking she's terrified, asked the man."You cruel woman!" the man just turned around his face to see his wife and gave her a hard slap and watched her fell badly on the wooden floor."You stole my money, didn't you?" he strode towards her, big steps.. grabbing her chin roughly."I-I.. didn't..." the lady frightened in fear stammered in her words.Rowan Butler was a drunkard, plain and simple. His breakfast was whiskey with a rum chaser. He was slurring his words by lunchtime and passed out by the afternoon. What little food he ate was in the form of chips and cold wieners from a jar. He didn't leave a house for anything. He even paid a widowed neighbo
Black Lace 2. TONGUELESS MOTHER.
As Amelia looks into the room, it stares back at her, with her being very horrified at how much filthy it looks. There she was slowly plodding through the room with the furnace of disgusting smell, her feet were suddenly seeking in the abomination of cloths. It was too filthy for her to believe.The bedroom wasn't just a mess, it was a disaster zone.On the floor was her mother, laying and sobbing helplessly. Amelia strode towards her and went on her knees."Mother..." she cried incapable and powerless. Within a second both the mother and daughter hugged each other like this was their safe place."At least say something, mother.." cried the daughter while the mother gave a little whimper as if saying something."Can't you talk?" she broke the hug and asked her crying mother. In return, the poor mother just shook her head.Amelia held her mother's hand as tears fell off her blue eyes, the eyes represented the ocean. The ocean is so deep and f
Black Lace 3. LUSTY MAN.

Kept their mouth shut. Only whispers of Amelia were heard in the room when she talked to her mother and in return Grace just write it down on a piece of paper.Grace has her daughter by her side and she felt powerful. Amelia was her pride, the apple of her eye. All of her life, she had one thing... one thing to make her miserable life livable.When she was coming back from the kitchen, her father interrupted her by saying, "Clean the house. Ri

You can do it, Elia. I can say with confidence that you will do great. Just breathe and show your magic." the best friend boosted up her faith and assured her.For a second, Amelia just closed her eyes and recalled all the bad days..of how much of her mother and she suffered because of her father.Her mother became tongue less because of that man.

Black Lace 87. I CAN'T DREAM ALONE.
The wedding day has arrived and Christian's anxiety was increasing with every minute passing by.He was awake but not leaving the bed, scared to step out and face the world.Amelia, who woke up before him and had a shower and prepared the breakfast, walked in the room and spoke, "Come on, have something. The breakfast is ready."He tossed to the other side saying, "Not hungry..." and she knew why he wasn't eating."Christian..." she stepped in the bed and put her small hand on his face to cup it as she spoke, "Christian... you are a strong guy. Don't be a coward.""I am a coward, Amelia. I can't face the world. I can't face Blair and all of my family members and the press and... and you... How can I face you after the wedding? How can I part the time from my schedule to handle two women at a time, if that's what you're thinking," he blurted out without thinking and sits to lean back on the bed as he continued, "You the most important person i
Black Lace 86. TOO PRICEY FOR TWO.
"No need to wear the bow with it," Kristopher said to his best friend who was checking the bow if it matched with his tuxedo."I was thinking the same," he replied as he gave the bow back to the sales guy.Christian and Kristopher were in the Armani store, selecting the wedding suit for the groom.His face was impassive, he had no excitement, no happiness or any other emotion in his face.Tomorrow is his wedding and he is not happy at all. What was he waiting for? The wedding to happen or the wedding to get stopped?"Christian, your grandma wants to meet you..." Kristopher informed him when he was lost in deep thoughts.When the guilt comes it takes him down the old familiar path. He wants to refuse to walk it, pretend that he's the person he demands that he would be. He wants to see himself in sepia tones, not perfect colour. He wants to scrub his head, but if he did he'd never learn from what happened. And it's true what they say, “T
Black Lace 85. NO NEXT TIME.
Christian and Amelia were bare skin, laying close to each other, her head rested on his chest as she heard the slow heartbeats of him.His heart beats around her was always leisure as if he was calm and relaxed with her.The ring of his phone interrupted their peace and as he saw the name, he quickly stood up from the bed, wearing his clothes, as he attended the call."Yes, Blair?" he spoke when he turned the speaker on, wearing the pants."Baby, where are you?" she asked in a sweet voice when Amelia quickly made an awkward face by squinting her eyes as she raised one side of the mouth, babbling with no voice and Christian indicated her to stay quiet.After talking on the phone when Amelia was laying on the bed, she copied Blair's voice by saying, "Babbyyyy... where are you, baby? Christian... come to me, please.""My hair will go white if you don't come in a minute..." she said with the change of voice when he chuckled and said, "did

When Christian didn't say a word, she understood as she withdrew her hand from his grip and the machines which were attached to her started beeping continuously.Blair's breath was high by now and she was struggling for air. Gasping for oxygen when Christian quickly pressed the help button next to her bed and made her wear the oxygen mask.Blair wasn't wearing the oxygen mask when the doctors came in they rushed towards her as they said, "Wear this mask.""No... I... won't. Christian... I want... answers," she said gasping for air struggling not to wear the oxygen mask.The doctors along with Christian was trying to wear her the oxygen mask."Blair, I will give you the answer. First, wear this mask," he pleaded when she refused to wear the oxygen mask.He gave up and quickly said, "Okay, Blair. I promise you to be your groom and we will get married on the same day."The seconds she heard those relaxing words, she immediately wor
