Ash

-You are marrying the son of a businessman.

These words sounded sharp, like a knife in the back. You couldn't believe your parents were capable of such a thing. To give away their only daughter to who knows who for money and fame. Your world collapsed in that moment. When you got to Ash's house, you fell into his arms and sobbed loudly in despair. He was furious when you told him everything. -I swear I'll come to the wedding and show you that you're mine.

He said through clenched teeth. You understood his anger. You'd been together for three years and kept your relationship a secret, but everything was fine. You almost never argued, and if there were minor ones, you quickly made up. On your wedding day, you were so sad. You didn't even really see your future husband. You kept thinking about Ash. How was he? Was he coping? You knew he couldn't. He couldn't cope. And neither could you. The music started playing and you walked slowly, your face sad, straight towards your future husband. You didn't even look at him. Your eyes were wet and tears threatened to burst out. The ceremony passed in a blur. You didn't understand anything and didn't even listen. You just stared into space, knowing it was the end. Suddenly the church door opened and Ash walked in. Tears finally started to roll from your eyes when you saw him. Ash confidently began walking toward you, under the surprised gazes of the guests. Ignoring your father's cries, he walked up to you, grabbed you by the waist, and kissed you.
