Sorry to all my exes Being a slave.

”Oh my God! I still can believe our dear Dionne is getting married ”

”To prince charming at that ”

”Next tomorrow will be huge! ”

Dionne was in the Bridal shops dressing room. She was trying out her third dress and she couldn help but smile when she heard what her friends were saying outside. She couldn believe it either. Her, Dionne, Greenville most feared heart breaker, is getting married. If you told her this 3 years ago, she would have laughed her lungs out. But its really happening!.

”By the way, where is Christopher? ” One of the girls asked.

”I don know? ”

”Maybe hes preparing another surprise ” another girl said and they all burst into giggles.

”How do I look? ” Dionne stroke a pose for her girlfriends when the curtains were opened.

”Ive never seen a bride so beautiful ”

”Thats why she could play all those boys ”

”Christopher will melt at the alter when he sees you ”

All three of her friends gushed over her.

Dionne giggled, ”I know Ive always been pretty, its not that much of a surprise you guys think that way too ” She said proudly as she changed her pose to see different angles of the dress. ”Well take this one ” she said to the attendant next to her.

Meanwhile, her friends were flashing her looks of jealousy and anger. They were not in any way happy for her. But they had to put up with it, their reputation was at stake.

Who doesn know Dionne in Greenville. She was the most popular girl on campus, the most envied among girls. Every one wanted to be Dionne. They wanted the boys eyes to be on them as well.

They couldn be Dionne, but they could be her friends. Back then, having Dionne talk to you was an achievement, what more being her friend. Being her friends came with perks, but it also has its own downsides.

Youd have to put up with her narcissistic remarks, her bragging, the amounts of gifts she gets on daily basis from boys which would only make you more jealous. There is no end to the amount of lowered self esteem youd feel when you stand together with her.

”She thinks shes all that ”

”Shes not even that pretty ”

”I hope she gets dumped at the alter ”

The girls resulted to whispering to get some of those heavy negative emotions away from their chests. But Dionne heard it. It was not the first time neither would it be the last, she didn let it bother her.

”Well deliver the dress to your home address ” The attendant told Dionne to which she nodded to.

”Lets go girls ” Dionne said as she walked out while expecting them to follow behind. They could talk all they want, but theyll forever be behind her, like a shadow, waiting for her to cast little light on them so they could be visible. Pathetic ingrates.

”Where are we going now? ” Ginny, one of the girls from earlier, held Dionnes arm as she asked. Out of the trio, she hated Dionne the most, yet, here she was being all chummy. Girls!.

”You don need to come with me. Your job here is done, Ill just drop you off at the intersection ” Dionne said without even glancing at her. She had no time for fake bitches. She had a wedding to plan.

”Hey Chris, ” Dionne smiled widely as she walked on the lonely side walk to the cake shop, the girls weren with her anymore.

”I don think I can make it to the cake tasting, maybe you should do it with your friends ” A male voice rang out from the phone.

”But you promised. First I tried the wedding gown without you and now Im going to the cake tasting without you. Marriage involves two people you know ” Dionne whined as she flailed her leg aimlessly while she walked.

”Im so sorry babe, something came up… ”

”Ahhh, come to bed Chris, I want more, Im still so horny ” He was interrupted by a female voice.

”Is anyone there with you?! ” Dionne asked defensively. She heard a voice, a female voice, but she couldn hear what she was saying.

”No one. Just a colleague ” He lied.

”Alright, make sure you come see me tomorrow okay? ”

”Yeah I will, bye! ”

”Bye ” Dionne let out a heavy sigh. She was doing this one alone again. The only thing Christopher has been a part of in their wedding plans, was when they had to buy the rings, other than that, he was never really present. Just text messages and stuff.

…

”Did you pick the cake? ” Dionne was laying on her bed while speaking to her future hubby.

”Yes. I picked a red velvet cake, and your favorite, Genoise Chocolat. ”

”Thats so thoughtful of you ” Dionne smiled foolishly when she received his compliment.

”Dionne honey, Dionne! ”

”Mums calling. Talk to you later. Love ya! ” Dionne ended the call before she answered, ”Yes mum! ”

”Come down to the living room honey, we have something for you! ”

”What is it mum? ” Dionne asked when she got to the living room, ”oh Dad!, You
e here as well, whats the occasion?. ”

”Come sit here ” her mother patted the table in front of her and her husband. Dionne sat down and her mum held both her hands.

”I can believe my baby is getting married next tomorrow. It all feels like a dream ”

”Mum! ” Dionne said when she saw the lone tear that slipped from her mums eyes.

”Its tears of joy hun, let her be ” her father patted her hands.

”After that incident, I thought youd be scarred for life. You don know how happy I am to see you get married to man you love. ” Her mum sobbed harder. She couldn hold the tears.

”Don think about the past again. Let your marriage be the start of a new beginning, with your husband and future kids. I know you can be petulant at times, but try to tone it down a little. ”

”Not you too dad! ” Dionne whined and everyone burst out amidst tears. The scene was very heart warming.

”Here, do you see this? ” Dionnes mother took out the jewelry box she hid behind her. She opened it and Dionne jaws dropped in surprise.

”Its so beautiful ” she praised.

”My mother-in-law gifted me this when I was about to get married to your father. As I have no son, and my future son in-law definitely can wear jewelries such as this, it now belongs to you. ”

”I thought this only happened in movies. I never knew we had a family heirloom. Im sure grandmas mother in-law gifted that to her too ”

”Huh! How did you know? ” Dionnes father feigned surprise and they burst out laughing again.

”Mum, dad ” she looked at them as she said,

”Ill be happy. ”
