WEDDING RECEPTION

I was startled because I never thought of him giving me such wedding reception after all it's a contract wedding.

I looked around the mansion, I never for once see myself living in such environment, a mansion.

I kept appreciating the beauty of the mansion, we entered into the house and he asked me to sit.

I sat down, not long three ladies came in, they greeted me , they had make up kit and some dresses with them, they greeted Brian but his PA led us to a room, it's like a mini salon inside the house while the decor was going on.

I look up to Brian who was busy making some calls, he was talking about us having the certificate that the person should come and get it.

Thirty minutes later, My makeup was done, I was given a frontal wig and it was styled.

I smile at myself when I saw my face in the mirror then I remember my kids and tears began to build up in my eyes, I had to try my best to push back my tears.

I was given some dresses to try on and finally I settled for a long straight gown that look like a dinner wear, it has a little train behind of it.

" You look absolutely geogeous, you look like a princess" one of the lady dressing me up says.

" Let me say she looks like Meghan right now because she looks like her when we just came in with that choice of outfit and now you choose just as perfect gown that matched your body" another lady said.

" Thank you"I replied.

The women gave me an open toe silver shoe and a clutch , I stood in front of the mirror and I see myself look like that real bride.

The women left me to stare at the mirror while the PA came to call me out of the room as I step out of the room and climb down the stairs , the sound of my shoes called the attention of Brian and his friend who was standing in the middle of the living room with the wedding certificate towards me.

They both stare at me at the same time and I felt shy , I couldn't get myself to look into their faces.

" Holy Moses" his friend says.

" Wow! I heard that.

I look up and my gaze with Brian gaze met, I quickly look away.

" Tammy I guess you need to take your leave now" I heard Brian said , I looked up and his face was still fixed on my me.

I stood rooted to the same spot I was.

He walked towards me and I try to move closer to him and I slipped , I almost fell down but he quickly came to my rescue and I fell into his hands.

We look sternly into each other's gaze and he smile.

He straightened me, held my hand, his palm were soft against mine, each time I want to look to the other side I always see his eyes fix on me.

We walked to his friend .

" Tammy meet Mrs Philips" he says.

I look at him because if I can remember we are not in a real marriage but a contract.

"Nice meeting you " he held my hand and wanted to kiss the back of my palm and I could see Brian stylishly take my hand away from his lips.

" I think you should leave now because I would need that Visa very soon, I and Mrs Philips needs to be on a trip once the Visa is out and also another way to have our honeymoon so Tammy you should get to work" he says tapping his shoulders.

His friend smiles.

" Both of you have a great day and enjoy your day" he said.

He held my hand and took me to the extravagant decor that was for just two of us for our wedding reception.

He help me pull out my chair while I sit down and he also goes to sit.

Different kind of dishes were brought to our table, the truth is I am famished and I cannot wait to try all the dishes because it's been a while I ate good food.

Immediately we were served I forgot about the wedding reception itself instead , I began to eat like a wild lion, I pull the plate of food closer eat all the food and even didn't try using cutlery with the chicken, I am not even good at making use of cutlery so I just ate like it's my last food on ate, throughout the way I was eating, I forgot someone was staring at me t was when he laughed out loud that he couldn't stop himself from laughing that I realized ow embarrassing what I have done was, I became shy but I am happy I had eaten enough before his outburst of laughter.

" Why did you stop? He asked.

I didn't say a word , I just look down feeling embarrassed.

" Mrs Philips why did you stop, you made my day with your way of eating you know? He says.

" You do not have to feel embarrassed, I am your husband feel free around me moreover I like that you do not pretend so much" he says.

I slowly look up stealing a look at him and I smile a bit.

" That was embarrassing" I said softly.

" You are not embarrassing to me, I like your way " he said.

We didn't talk so much , after the whole thing we danced and our wedding cake was brought we cut it made a toast, he ask his PA to use his iPhone to take our wedding pictures and he also made some video of the events after the whole day, I began to display being drunk, I was drunk.

He carried me a bridal style but I was already wasted at that moment, I know he lift me off my feet but I couldn't control how tipsy I was.
