While she was out, the dresses finally arrived. The makeup artist and Frederique the hairstylist were ready to work their magic on the bride. She came back to the room, the stylists were ready to tackle her and turn her into a goddess. She went to the bathroom for a quick shower and came back 20 minutes later. While the stylists were working on her, Stacy was trying to get hold of Thabo and his friends but to no avail.
Pam and Stacy were done dressing and Pam’s mom came in to tell them that the Pastor was there. He was ready to get the ball rolling but the band and the groom still hadn’t arrived. At that moment Pam panicked and started having a minor panic attack which caused her to go running out of the room. Her mom had had enough and she stormed out in a rush.
When Pam came back and her mom wasn’t there. They were running behind schedule and Pam was panicking. She decided that the wedding was off. Stacy was trying to convince her otherwise but Pam didn’t budge. Twenty minutes later her mom came back with a pregnancy test. She came in and handed it to Pam.
“No questions, just do it,” she ordered.
“Uhm, mom the wedding is off,” said Pam.
“What? Nonsense, honey. I know things don’t look good but don’t give up,” replied her mom trying to reason with her.
Pam had her mind made up. Thabo finally arrived and he was told about Pam’s change of heart. He wanted to speak to her immediately but Stacy didn’t allow him – all in the name of tradition. He insisted on talking to her and finally they allowed him to stand at the door and talk to her.
“Baby, please, I love you and I want to make you my wife. I don’t want to wait, by the end of today you will be my wife.”
“OK,” replied Pam.
She quickly went on to do her business in the bathroom with the pregnancy test. She couldn’t wait as she had to get to the beach for the service to start. She and Stacy got out of the house and her mom was ready to walk her down the aisle. The band was set and she walked down the aisle, to an already eager Thabo who was all smiles.
The service started. As they were about to say I do, the wedding planner came holding her thumbs up to Stacy. When Pam looked at Stacy, Stacy signalled with her hands a round big tummy. After the Pastor said, “You may now kiss the bride,” Pam whispered in Thabo’s ear: “I’m pregnant.”
They kissed.
The End
