Get Me Married

Chapter 9: Pre_wedding drama

that point I decided, if sacrificing my dreams, my goals, my freedom, my happiness was the only way to keep my family happy and away from poverty, then I was going to do it and more. “Are you sure?” he asked and looked into my eyes so I wouldn’t lie. “Yes… I am” I said boldly and smiled at him “I love you a lot you know….” I said and he grinned at me. “Actually I don’t know..” he teased “Dad…..” I called outrageouslyand I pouted. He chuckled and pulled me into another hug. “I love you too Bluey….” He said and placed a kiss on my head. “The car is here…they have been outside for an hour now” he said and I pulled away. “What car?” I asked and he grinned at me. “Mrs Chase had so much to do. So she sent two cars with escorts that will take us to the hotel” he explained and an ‘oohh’ escaped my lips. That was my queue to get ready. I got up and took note of my bag that had been packed up already. I quickly had my bath and ate my breakfast, there was no way I was going to leave without eating, I knew that leaving the house that day was going to change everything for me. I knew that I was not going to return to that house as a single girl anymore and I had to eat my mom’s food because I didn’t know when I was going to have a taste of it again. It wasn’t like I was going to die, neither was it like I was traveling far away.  I was just emotional and such thought didn’t leave me. After eating, I came out of the house, there were four cars and I saw men on Black suit bowing down to me. It felt weird and completely off, seeing them that way reminded me of how powerful the family I was getting married to was. My sister already hopped into the first car, followed by my mom and dad. One of the guards opened the door of the second car and bowed while I hopped in followed by Tiana and Tiffany who didn’t stop shrieking out of excitement. During the ride, I felt I was going to have a panic attack. The news about Jordan’s wedding was everywhere and I was still nervous. I made up my mind to actually go through with the marriage but that didn’t stop me from being scared. Being a chase was like a burden on my shoulders. The attention, the media, I knew my life was not going to remain the same after the wedding. And though Jordan had assured he wasn’t going to force me into doing anything, I was still nervous about our wedding night. I wasn’t so sure he could keep to his words. Hours later, we were in one of the prestigious and luxurious hotels in the state. It was a two hours drive to the hotel and I was slowly feeling a cramp on my butt before we arrived. I watched as Ava jumped out from the other car and shrieked and that alone gave me enough joy to push through with the marriage. I alighted from my car and get pretty weird with all the security guards around. They escorted us in, my parents and sister has a different room, Tiana and Tiffany also had a different room and I had a suit all to my self. When the door was open, mom Leona was in there with some ladies I had never met. “There she is…” she said proudly and as usual, spread her arms for a hug, which I respectfully obliged. “Here she is…isn’t she just beautiful?” she asked the ladies and I smiled shyly at them. “She is….” They responded and smiled at me “Well…get to work, make sure you would start preparation today and figure out what would suit her and make her beauty more bold okay” she instructed and they inclined their head to her. “The gown should be here by morning, make sure the decorations are going pretty well, I really don’t want to have Jordan on my neck” she added and I stared at her confused. My gown was supposed to have arrived, and Mrs Leona had said the decorations and every other thing were already taken care of. We had just few hours to my wedding and it seemed like nothing had been arranged. “Gown? What gown? I thought the gown arrived days ago and….” I had to ask. Mom Leona turned to me and gave me a smile. “Jordan made some last minute changes….in fact he changed every single thing and that’s what has actually kept me so busy. Jordan has literally been barking orders at every one to make sure it’s the way you
