One week later.
Anna was sitting in front of her makeup table where the makeup artist was doing her makeup. Kiara was with Alex while her mother and father knocked on the door of their room.
“Shall we come to Anna?” Liam asked and that instantly, Anna turned around to look at her parents and passed them with a smiling nod.
Walking with their hands into their hands, Marrie and Liam were looking at their daughter with a loving gaze. Never in their wildest dream, they could have imagined that after so many problems in her life, she would be able to overcome them and lead a happy life as well.
“You look beautiful, Anna.” Marrie smiled and kissed on the top of her forehead. Cupping her face, her eyes become red due to the emotional turmoil of her daughter in the white bridal dress.
“Mom… this is a happy occasion. Why are there tears in your eyes? are you not happy to see me getting married?”
“Which mother won’t be happy to see her children getting married? But today, I’m also proud of the lady you have become, Anna.” As a mother, all she wished was for her daughter to settle down.
After having Kiara, Marrie was scared that Anna will not accept just anybody because she has the shadow of Alex but here they are standing again. Alex is also with them, and Kiara as well.
Her hand went to Anna’s stomach and caressed it out, “Two more children are going to bring happiness to our world. Hopefully, they will be healthy.” Anna can’t help but smile.
She was pregnant with twins this time! Moreover, they are getting married in the presence of their children, so what if the twins are still in their stomachs? At least they are there with her.
“Anna, we know you had your own ups and downs in your life but you succeed at them and I guess, if we find things easily, we never value them. You have gone through a rough patch as well and this taught the importance of the tiniest things in your life.” In Liam’s eyes, this was a lesson that his daughter heard.
Coming closer, he continued, “I know that I have never been the best father to you or to your late brother. But.. you back were my only children. I was never able to witness my Seb’s wedding, but Anna, forgiving me for whatever I have done to you and your mother under my foolishness, can you give me this honor of walking you down the aisle?”
He asked her permission with utmost sincerity reflected in his eyes. He had no reasons to ask for her permission after all he is her father. He might not be the best out of the world but everything he did was to safeguard her.
He committed several mistakes but rectified them as well. If not with her in the light, he was always there in the dark and helping her to deal with her issues.
“Father… No matter what happens, you are my father and no one can snatch that title away from you. Walking down me, the aisle is always your symbol and responsibility and I’m happy that you came far from it.” Anna responded.
Liam extended his hand. “Shall we?” Anna tugged her one hand into his arm and another into her mother’s. Her face was now fully covered with the light veil.
Who uses veils these days? Because Anna still liked those traditional types of entry.
The slow music was being played at the end of the church where the ceremony was supposed to be held. Kiara was standing near Alex, whose two men were standing and near Anna, were her two best ladies.
Meanwhile back in the hall, Alex was sweating heavily when he saw no glimpse of Anna for two days! His impatience ness was growing more and more with each passing second but at that time, Kiara tugged his pants.
“Dad.. stop being so nervous. Nothing is going to be snatched away.” He picked Kiara up in his arms and kissed her cheeks. “Obvious nothing will be snatched but.. why is it taking your mom so long?”
“C’mon brother, you can’t wait for two more minutes for my sister-in-law to enter? You will be tied for the entire lifetime, I guess two minutes is worth it.” Scott liked teasing him a little bit but Alex ignored his words.
His eyes were continuously fixed at the door and then… he saw three people renting.
Everyone’s eyes shifted to the lady whose face was now covered with a veil but no one can hide the beauty that lies beneath it. Light music was played in the background and seeing Anna in the bridal dress, almost made Alex stop breathing for mere a few minutes
But Kiara then patted Alex’s back, “So mommy us here. Now you can see her as much as you want!” She spoke and also looked at her mother cheerfully who liked no less than the white fairy in her dream book.
Anna just stopped in with her parents on either side and she lifted her eyes slightly to see the crowd of the people. Her eyes with Klara.. and then with Alena, who is also her bridesmaid.
And then… she shifted her glance to see Alex who was standing at fat away, in the center. Both of their eyes just stared at each other from head to toe to capture this moment in their memory lane for years.
Liam, Marrie, and Anna started walking down the aisle when everyone was just stunned and looked at her family with loving and warm gazes. They can feel the warmness growing in their heart on seeing such a view.
In the end, when they reached the place, Liam handed Anna’s hand into Alex’s extended hand and said, “I do not have to say anything because I already know how you have been protecting and loving her since a young age. Keep your family a happy family, child.”
“You don’t have to worry, father. I will give every happiness in this word to her, and also to my three children.” Liam smiled hearing the assured words of the young man.
He stepped back and both Alex and Anna faced each other face to face. The proximity between them was very close. Alex just wished to remove the veil from her face and kiss her deeply and absorb all kinds of taste.
“Ahem Ahem.. so shall we start the ceremony?”
