Draining Mr. Brainy -(DA series book 1)

Chapter 36

Tiny Point of View

"I can't believe I'm getting married." I danced to maddening music that wasn't there at all.

Paronella park is great. Especially for weddings.

The trees, the gardens, the waterfalls, everything is so in tune producing positive energy and passing on to those who are starting a new life its womb.

Absolute wondrous!

We've been here for a week now and it's been one of best weeks of my life. The pre-wedding rituals are absolutely a blast.

Except, the blast has different definitions for each of us.

Four weddings at the same time and same place; joint weddings; implied that confusion, excitement and madness is needed and a must package.

Every single thing led to one disorder or the other. It was one exciting blast of roller coaster ride the past week for me while to others, it is just exhausting.

"Is my pin in place? Isn't it sticking out of my hair?" Aella forcefully pushed the pin into her chignon before we could answer her and as a result hissed in pain when the pin dug her scalp.

"Ma'am, please; the pin is just in the right place. Do not move it." The hairdresser managed to get Aella's hair neatly tugged back into a nice chignon again as she assured Aella of how beautifully styled her hair is.

"I have a severe headache. I drank too much last night and look at the result; I look like a living dead on my wedding day. Just great." Soul exasperated in her robotic voice making Anete chuckle.

"You won't call them dark circles if you've seen mine. I cemented mine with God knows what."

"You know, I was thinking why the hell am I even getting married and then I answered myself that Quince is a pup that needs me as his leash."

"My cousin is a humble, kind and a soft natured man, Soul." Aella and I said unison causing Soul to frown at us.

"I'm going to be a leash for those exact same things. A balance, you see." Ah, point taken.

"What about boys? Are they ready yet or are they busy getting their makeup on?" Anete asked causing us to laugh out loud enough for the tears to come out.

Although there were many mishaps all through the past week, the first big confusion took place on the day of makeover ritual.

We've booked the whole spa and their services for bridal makeover and pampering. With a beautiful huge family, somehow a confusion between us and the staff arose due to miscommunication and guess what happened!

The Bridal makeover has turned to Groom's makeover day.

The four grooms who were enjoying their day swimming away were pulled out and rushed to the spa. A couple hours later, when we, brides, went to the floor to get our services, we came face to face with four familiar men lounging on the spa chairs with face packs on their faces, getting their hair treatment, pedicure and manicure simultaneously.

Behind us in the large spa hall, are other men from our families who were getting massages and other services that were meant for brides and other ladies of the troupe.

"Although it has been a fun day with lot of laughter, aish, we did not even have a proper spa day." Anete sighed, pulled her cheek to measure the smoothness of her non-pampered skin.

"Did you see the guys last night; they are glowing like a woman at the prime of her pregnancy. King even got his hair styled like those on the fashion magazine cover page." Soul commented with a glare at none in particular.
