Melokuhle



I was happy, Having standing opposite him in front of the pastor and everyone who was here to witness our love.

This was it, this moment right here, was what mattered.

“Our love story is not the typical love story that you see on TV or read on those cheesy romance book, No. Our love is unique, different. It is not perfect, It is messy and full of drama but that what makes it special. I promise to love you each and every day of my life.”

I wiped a tear and sighed “Now my vow will sound boring after that.” I said with a smile “I hated you, for the longest of time I hated you and I guess that hatred brought me closer to you. I have never felt such love before, And thank you dad for owing him because I wouldn’t have met him. Sometimes love comes so unexpected and in all kinds of ways. I love you Melusi.”

“Please you may seal those beautiful vows with a kiss.”

Without hesitating Melusi pulled me closer and kissed me. I knew in that moment as we kissed that I wanted no one else but him. Our love story is not the typical one but that what makes it magical.

Balloons were set free making the sky beautiful as the flew away. I smiled, it was beautiful.

I looked at everyone, My mom was wiping tears and my dad was smiling besides him at least fir a minute or two he was happy for me, I turned and found Lizzy looking at us and nodded.

It was not my dream wedding but it somehow came out better, I stood on my toes and kissed Melusi again “I love you.” I said as I looked at his hazel eyes.”

He held my cheek and smiled” I love you too.”
