Chapter 9: THE WEDDING

“Miss Sophie, which wedding gown here would you like to wear?” asked the bridal stylist to me as the maids keep on bringing different wedding gowns.

I looked at the gowns without any emotion on my face. “You can just choose for me.”

The stylist looked surprised. “O-Okay, Miss Sophie. I think the first one would look good on you.”

“Okay.”

I’m going to marry the man that I don’t even love. I’ve been dreaming about getting married since I was a kid. I don’t care if it’s simple, I don’t care what place we’re going to get married at, and I don’t even care what gown would I wear as long as my groom is the man that I truly love. I’ve always dreamed of having a happy, loving family, but I don’t think I would still be able to have that.

The stylists permed my hair and turned it into a messy bun where some strands of it were falling on the side of my cheeks. They put a simple make up on my face, a tiara above my head, and a simple square-neck wedding dress made of real diamonds. “Miss Sophie, you look so beautiful!”
