The Wrong Revenge

Sofia

"Sorry, I missed your call. The music couldn't allow me to realize that my phone was ringing! Just got home now!"

For more than five seconds, I couldn't alter a word.

"Alright, baby," as I normally called him. "I wanted to check on you, to know if you have arrived home safely."

"I'm cool," he responded ecstatically.

I was making an effort to see if I could capture any strange sounds from the background.

The more I pay attention, the clearer the music in the background becomes.

I continued being inquisitive until he hung up the call.

To my dismay, I couldn't dictate any female sound.

The day has finally come; everywhere was burbling, and different faces were flooding in.

The atmosphere was filled with euphony coming from different individuals.

The entire arena was painted with different art. Beautiful flowers everywhere. In any direction you jerk your eyes to, smiling faces are littered.

The decorations made the entire building so exquisite.

All the guests were present. Some are still on their way.

The cameraman was busy snapping at random. Moving in all directions to make sure he captures different faces at the event.

My fiancé was so charming, seeing him in his black suit. With well-polished black shoes. Filled with uncontrollable ecstasy.

His blue eyes pierce whenever I come in contact with them.

My wedding gown was so long and dazzling that it swept along as I walked.

Linda was so joyous that one could see the organic smile all over her. Following me in every direction I moved. Making sure no sweat is seen on any part of my face.

What a loving friend!

Lizzy, my younger sister, was among those welcoming guests into the event hall. Different cars were seen parked outside.at the car lot. Everywhere was bubbling.

My mom was busy smiling like one watching a comic movie from where she sat.

A few minutes later, I was pressed.

I decided to make use of the restroom.

Meanwhile, Linda had gone out to get some handkerchiefs in a nearby shop.

The one she was holding had been overly stained with lipstick and sweat coming from her makeup. She was looking so angelic with her lips painted in red lipstick

As I was about to swing open the restroom door, I started hearing some sounds

I held myself back, stood for some seconds

At first, I thought someone was making use of the restroom, and I was hearing a male voice. I stood beside the door innocently. Waiting for whoever is inside to come out.

Surprisingly, I started hearing a female voice inside. Echoing out vigorously.

"You know I love you so much, Miguel. And I am pregnant for you! The car you promised to buy for me, you have yet to redeem. Or do you prefer the scourge of the sun to heat me and our baby?"

"I don't want Sofia's trouble. The five thousand dollars you also promised me, you have been quiet about it."

"The two-bedroom flat you also promised to rent for me, you still left me stuck in self contained." Is it after your wedding that you are going to fulfill all this?

Is it when you are overloaded with responsibility that you are going to respond?

I became frozen, hearing Linda's voice so clear as if both of us were sitting on a couch discussing.

The rate at which my heart started beating was unimaginable. My mind almost left my body!

Beyond doubt was when I heard Miguel's soft voice! Assuring her of the promises he made. He even promised to issue a cheque of five thousand dollars immediately after the wedding!

I stood confused and speechless!

I almost collapsed on the ground when I started hearing the sound of two lips clamping together, enjoying each other's lips and feeling the texture.

I couldn't hold myself anymore!

My heartbeat was uncontrollable!

Courage from an unknown source just flashed inside of me like a flash of lightning.

I moved forward and gripped the knob, pushing the door inward angrily!

My ragged eyes flickered and clashed immediately with those of Linda, who was staring directly at me in utmost shock!

She was almost half-naked; her breasts could be seen. Immediately, Miguel released his grip on her breast and turned towards the door. He saw no other person than a woman standing in her white wedding gown.

Immediately, Miguel buried his face in the ground, feeling ashamed.

"Why did you barge in without knocking?" He roared! He was so angry and so infuriated.

He couldn't stare at me directly, rolling his eyes randomly in guilt.

I stood speechless!

He even has the guts to ask me stupid questions! No sign of remorse on his face. His lips were covered in red with Linda's painted lips. He has been busy enjoying her lips!

Linda stood speechless in guilt with her face buried in the ground. She couldn't alter a word; she stood like a molded Statue.

Like someone being paused with a remote control. Only God knows what could be running through her mind for this betrayer.

A friend I trusted so much. She knew my in and out! I feel betrayed and heartbroken by my childhood friend!

She slothfully started dressing herself up in shame and disappointment.

The top of the purple gown she wore was so rumpled with Miguel's grip!

Miguel was also buttoning up his suit, looking so ragged, his eyes became so pale!

You have been deceiving me with fake love, Miguel! I winced!

My heart was so heavy, uncontrollable tears started gushing down my face. I couldn't hold it back any longer!

I was drowning in a sea of pain.

"This wedding is over!" I screamed with a shattered heart!

"We can iron things out. Sofia is not what you think! Can...you.. can you please.. list.."

I didn't even allow him to land with his disgusting stammering voice.

I slammed the door very hard, removed my high heels and took to my heels.

When I burst into the event hall, I increased my speed.

Eyes were flashing at me in surprise

I heard Lizzy shouting my name, but I never turned my back! I held my wedding gown so strongly. Running fast like one trying to escape a predator.
