Get Me Married

Chapter 10: The wedding

the only woman I could ever want to be married to. The door burst open and my mom walked in. The attendant immediately bowed their head in recognition and went ahead to finish up the last touches in my suit. “You look absolutely stunning ma’am” Kelvin complemented and my mom gave him a genuine smile. Which was weird because she was good at frightening people. “Well…it’s my son’s wedding after all” she beamed and I understood the reason she was smiling. It was my wedding and her dreams were finally coming through.
