The music instantly stopped the moment they footed in the room. The lights surrounding the canopy lit and everybody stood up. 

one and all were staring, taking pictures, smiling, and clapping as every different petal fell from the sky. 

Mr and Mrs Lï walked to escort them to the mandap as Guerrier joined them.

"I would say cold feet honey," her husband corrected.

Bomal  prowled up and patted Akarui on the back, then helped Cadeau take the two stairs up the canopy. 

 "Is it because of the wedding, or your shoulders have become more broad,?" Mrs Lï stated lifting the garlands of the sereul. Guerrier quickly blocked her view.

    "The couple may now sit for the final orisons." the priest ordered.He chanted some words to them and instructed. "The groom may now tie the wedding chain and apply the vermilion."Natasha and fleur moved closer presenting the salver with the chain and bow of vermilion.Akarui took the chain first and tied it around Cadeau's neck then applied vermilion on her forehead beneath the mandapatti,"Only you have the right to touch her to apply it and only in your absence will she apply it to herself as a symbol of your commitment," he told Akarui.He faced the audience with a smile and stated, "No one argues or fights with what the Almighty has said and chosen.

    If they're all happy and still friends then I think we should forgive them," Mr Lï spoke."I also don't see any wrong with that." One of the guys said, and everybody started raising votes one by one.."Alright, alright," Mrs Wang Lei intervened. "Just like Lijie has said, they hid it from us because they feared rejection. But now it's our duty as parents to support them. Therefore, my husband and I accept," she clapped twice and concluded, "guess let's all forget and get back to the party," and the music resumed.Mrs Lï glared at Cadeau and then said angrily to Lijie, "from now on don't bother coming home or calling me mom, the same way you got married without saying is the same way you should live your life." She grabbed her purse and stormed out of the place.Mr Lï congratulated them and teased Cadeau, "Immediately your honeymoon is over, am still your boss and I want you back in the office," he walked to Lijie."your mum will come around, wh

    After staying in the bathroom crying and feeling much better Cadeau retouched her makeup and walked out the door.precipitously a girl of Cadeau's age in a baby pink soft evening gown stood in front of her with carriage and dignity of an iceberg. Her thin, sharp features never showing the slightest emotion.Cadeau fidgeted, "what do you want Ōjo."The girl looked down her nose at Cadeau."Look who we have here the one and only Barbie or should I call you Mrs Lijie?" She coldly spoke, not backing down.Cadeau looked on the side, avoiding any eye contact. She knew that old sarcasm way to much to be intimidated.The girls head thrust forward like a weapon. "Let me tell you something fake-princess," she inched forward. "In life they're people who'll always hate you, the way you breath, the way you talk, how you laugh, or even just so because it's you. And I happen to be those people.""So guess what, I was home sipping my wine

But Tasha was nowhere in sight, Cadeau turned every leaf then she saw Akarui talking to someone and an idea struck .However before she could tap him on the shoulders, she espied Akarui pulling he's father by the neck.She couldn't see Akarui's face but she could feel he's white knuckles from clenching he's fists too hard."I've understood Dad," she heard Akarui root he's jaw."And you better keep your word cause what I'll do to you will be suicidal I mean it," the anger in Akarui's tightened back showed no remorse like a cramp and quiet rage building inside.

    Jhene walked in with a prescription from the doctor and handed it to Natasha. "She's perfectly fine and has been discharged. But in case of any headaches or further nosebleed he has prescribed some medicines," she walked to the bedside and sat on the chair. ""Guess it's just you and these lonely walls," Cadeau told herself and stood to leave at the same time Akarui walked through the door.The box in Akarui's hands immediately fell from fright like someone crushed in to him.He squinted he's eyes to the light coming through the staircase and couldn't believe he's eyes. He fidgeted, feeling at a loss of words.He looked at Cadeau and looked at the wall clock.It was five past the hour four in the morning. Had Cadeau been crying all this time, he wondered.Cadeau stood motionless.A normal person would have run but Akarui could hardly force himself to walk.

She flipped the overs back and stood, She slipped her feet into the fluffy house shoes next to her bed, God knows who they belonged to, and snatched the robe on the chair.She stepped toward the window and slid it up, she sent the vase of flowers flying down and pressed back for the curtains then walked to the door and stepped out.It was four past eleven in the morning, she looked at the wall clock ticking.The sent of strong coffee and bacon hit her nostrils, but not enough for her disappeared appetite either way, she followed the trail stopping at apex of the stairs.Her stomach rolled remembering Akarui's fist in the dust.He must have been hurt sh

The coffee was going cold next to the beacon and bread set out on the table, the fire was crackling softly, Fei Hong was in the kitchen, and for the first time she felt blank.She kept on replaying the images from the previous night, and wondered if Akarui was really trying to win her heart or he was trying to get her in his bed? All over sudden he was attentive and caring, when days before he was rude and didn't care, he even tried to kiss her by force. But again, she could not overlook the fact that he apologized for everything and wanted to restart things over.The voice at the back kept saying he was still Lijie's friend, what if he also woke up one day and decided he was nolonger in love with her, what would happen then.

Cadeau asked, taking slow steps next to him."Mmh not really per say," he responded with a crooked smile.Though she could clearly see he did. the place was fairly bright with ferry lights dancing around the tent house shielding from the cold to form a huge sleeping pad like.The fire lighted at the center danced in flames creating a camp like glow that made everything seem romantic, and make Cadeau to start fantasizing about turning to Akarui and kissing him to passion stretching out on the floor beside him and making love in the shadows of the flames facing the spaced stars above.No. Cadeau shook her head. this was probably because Lijie's picture of making love to Amanda was stuck in her head and she couldn't get it out.Rather than sitting around t

    "You know," Lijie began, smiling. "Mum was asking me what we were thinking to name the baby after me and Akarui," he bounced deliberately, to entertain the baby in his arms. "Dad did too," Amanda said grinning, she tossed her long hair carelessly and added, "but it was because I love the names, like they just rhymes in my mouth, Lijie Akarui_Hero light," As if in answer, the baby clapped his tiny hands and chortled in a giggle. Amanda kissed his forehead with a playful tone and curved her mouth slightly, "see he agrees, besides, I wanted him to have the best of both worlds.
