Alissa
When I got up from sleep, I saw a message of Eric in which it was written that today is a day off of the
company
Probably cause he got married!!!
That shit hits hard. I swear to god. I was still not able to sink that shit inside of me. I am just thinking
that this phase has to pass. Like, even if I have to cry every single night, I have to move on. Because, I
am going to see his face every single day and I have to accept the fact that instead of me it was Cheryl
who took vows in that church.
I went to cook some food. Jade was still sleeping in her room. I thought not to disturb her. I cooked
some bakon and scrambled eggs. It can lighten my mood a bit, I thought. Last night was almost spent
in crying. I just don't think I will ever be able to move on and I will ever find the true love of my life. I
want to forget whatever happened between me and Eric. I know it must be easy for him to move
on........I guess. It's just a wild guess maybe he is also missing me and cursing his luck. Maybe he
wants to get back with me. Maybe he must be thinking about me like I am thinking about him right now.
Stop Alissa. You have to move on. You can't live like that. I made my breakfast and went to wake up
Jade who was sleeping like a princess right now. Carefree. I wish I could have a life like that. Carefree.
I woke her up and she quickly got ready. We both ate our food in a complete silence. No one was in the
mood of talking. But she suddenly spoke to me.
"Why haven't you been to office today?"
"It's a day off" I replied in a flat tone.
She just hummed and we both finished our breakfast. Later, she went to her room and I was left alone
thinking what to do. I looked at the clock and it was 10:28. I thought to clean up the house. So I cleaned
the whole house. I washed the clothes. I washed the dishes. Jade did the dusting. I rearranged my
small little library. Those love novels staring right through me. I huffed and started to arrange them in a
much better order.
I looked at the clock and now it was 1:15. Wow! Time passed pretty quick.
I lied in my bed and realising I haven't been giving any time to myself. All I have been doing is crying
and going to office and not staying at home that is why it was getting so hard to stay at home. I should
have given time to myself. I suddenly heard my doorbell ring. I saw Jade coming out of her room. We
both stepped down the stairs and I opened the door only to find Cassandra there with a huge smile. I
was pretty confused seeing her. Because she should be at the wedding. Has she came here to invite
me. Wait? What is happening?
She captured me in a warm hug and I returned that hug.
She looked at me and said
"Haven't gotten much sleep huh?" I laughed and tried to answer but what could I have even said.
"Hi Jade" Cassandra said and captured her in a hug as well.
"Why you are not at the wedding?" I asked.
"It's already done" She said breaking my heart into million of pieces.
"Early right?" I said and she nodded.
"I came here to know why you both never showed up at the wedding?" She said crossing her arms.
"I was not well" I said.
"I can see that. Just look at you. You are looking quite weak. You are not eating or what?" She
exclaimed.
I just shrugged and we both sat on the couch and Jade went back to her room not bothered by this
world at all.
"Just go and get ready. It's a day off today. So let's hang out" She said.
"Why are you coming with me?" I asked.
"Why can't two best friends hang out together?" She said.
Best friends?
I felt something inside of me. Not really understanding what it really is.
I got up and quickly got ready. I told Jade that I am leaving and she nodded.
I went out of the house with Cassandra and she took me to a salon. It was so grand. It was looking
expensive as well. We entered and Cassandra led me to the reception. She looked at Cassandra and
gave her a big smile. I came to know that she has already took an appointment. We were led to a room
and that room was so big and it has two giant elegant bathtub filled with warm bubbly water. The room
was painted with golden color with small design on the walls. It had a chandelier.
Cassandra looked at me and said "Isn't it amazing"
"Totally" I replied.
We went to a small changing room and came out with bathrobe. We entered in that warm relaxing This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
water and I swear I felt so relaxed.
"Just take deep breaths Alissa. Just calm yourself" Cassandra said.
I totally did that. It was all so relaxing. After few moments two ladies entered the room and massaged
our heads. I was wondering if Cassandra knew how I felt about Eric and that is why she came here to
just make me happy. We spent 45 minutes and it felt like heaven. We dried ourself and wore our
bathrobe and a lady took us to a makeup room.
"Why are we getting our make up done?" I asked Cassandra.
"Chill out honey. It's a girls day out. Just spend some time with yourself. Love yourself. And relax" She
said giving me a side hug.
"God Alissa I love you so much" She said out of the blue.
I giggled and replied with a "Love you too"
We both took our seats in front of the mirror and first they gave us a haircut. My length of hair was
pretty long. They cut it short. Now my hair came to my chest. They were curly so I was looking pretty
young now. They were looking so bouncy and wavy. They right after that started my make up. It was a
full coverage make up. Cassandra was sitting right next to me. She was looking gorgeous as hell. Her
plus point is that she is a blondy. I, though have got few compliments because I am a brunette. So I
think I am not that bad. When our makeup was done I swear to God I never felt so beautiful in my
entire life. I felt so good. Cassandra stared at me with a mouth open.
"Girl, it seems like you have just came down from heaven"
"Oh shut up. You look so effortlessly gorgeous"
She came to me and gave me tight hug. She held my hand and took me to a changing room and gave
me a elegant black dress.
"Wear this" She ordered.
"Hey. You don't have to do this much for me. I promise. Seriously. I am feeling the bad one now" I said
meaning it.
"Come on don't be so formal" she said waving her hand in the air.
I went inside and changed into that black dress. I was looking so gorgeous. I felt so good after wearing
that dress. It was so good. I came out of the room and Cassandra said "Goddess of Beauty"
I laughed and she made me wear some jewelry.
I looked at the time and it was 6:34. I didn't realized how much time have I taken.
Cassandra then said "Come on Alissa. There is still so much more"
"What is it today? You are like a bunch of surprises" I said, giggling.
"Don't ask. Just watch" She said and grabbed me outside and made me sit in a Porsche. I looked
outside to find that Cassandra was not sitting. I rolled down the window of the car and said "Come on
in"
She just shook her head and said "My driver will take you to your destination. Don't worry"
Before I could register that in my mind the driver drove off. I was feeling that something is on its way.
Something must be going to happen now. The driver drove to a very silent and a very peaceful beach.
But that was so much different. The driver opened the door for me and I thanked him. Suddenly two
bodyguards came to me and one stood behind me and one in front of me, making me follow him. I
noticed that there were yellow and white lights put up on the side. There were barriers at the border of
the beach and was decorated with the lights. Then there came something which made me filled with
emotions. The bodyguards left. There were my pictures put up on the beach inside a circle of lights.
The beach was lighten up with lights and other decorations.
They were the photos of me smiling, laughing, eating and then there were photos of me and Eric
together. I was sitting beside him in a photo. In another photo there was me and Eric laughing over
something. I had tears in my eyes till now. The aisle was made so beautifully. I was walking over it and
photos were kept on the side of the aisle with beautiful quotes. It was looking so beautiful. The aisle
almost came to an end that I saw him standing on the aisle, but it was now a little higher at the end. I
was about to break down. I wanted to go to him and hug him like my life is dependent on him. I saw
him looking into my eyes with full of love and passion. I know that this could not be a dream. I know
that he can not be a dream. I know that he is meant for me. As I took small steps towards him I knew
that he is real. I knew that I can now feel him. And slowly I took my steps towards him
