BRIDE IN DISTRESS
You can now lift the bride’s veil the priest informed frank.
Frank moved towards to Martina and was about to lift her veil.
Oh great heavens if Frank should see my face like this, I am done for.
He held her veil and was about to unveil her face, she shut her eyes tightly waiting for the worst to happen. Just then Maya’s mother came over and demanded that the bride face should be kept hidden till after the wedding ,she explained that it was a family tradition and nobody suspected anything. I’m so lucky, now Maya should hurry up because I don’t know what could come up next and I don’t know how to handle it plus I can’t die now, I still have a family to care for.
Maya POV
Kenneth had just been taken to the ICU for surgery, he sustained alot of internal and external injuries.
A doctor came out from the ICU and Maya rushed over to speak with him.
How is he doctor? She asked as endless tears keeps streaming down her eyes, she couldn’t stop blaming herself, she knew he was blind? Couldn’t she had been a little more careful? She was depressed and frustrated with the thought of how could she forgive her self if anything bad happens to him.
His condition is critical and we are trying our best to save his life,we can only hope he survives the surgery the doctor commented.
Please doc try your best, I don’t and I can’t lose him.please she said as she burst into tears.
Madam if you want the best treatment for him then you will have to forward him to a better hospital, I will process the transfer letter immediately he said and walked away.
Maya felt her world crumbling, isn’t she supposed to be a happy sweet bride today? But instead she’s a bride or rather a damsel in distress she sighed.
***
Maya please come over as soon as possible Martina prayed.
Soon the wedding was over and she was adorned and she sat on the bed decorated for the neptials.she prayed, cried and Hoped Maya would come and saved her from all of these but the more she waited the more she seemed to wait in vain.
Soon Frank walked into the room completely drunk, he was stumbling and falling all over the place, he finally reached the bed she was lying on.
