I am stirred awake by my bed dipping, I turn to look and Kai is trying to sleep.
"Baby, is that you?"
"I hope you are referring to me." His voice is drowned in fatigue
"I have no lovers besides you, fiance." He lets out a giggle "I missed you." He pulls me closer
"I missed you more Kitten." I settle into his presence and sleep seems to invite itself in because before long, drowsiness kicks in. He places a kiss on my forehead. Sleep drowned me in its waters.
Finishing the school year meant the most to me because of what happened in my life this year, I have proven myself to be stronger than I thought I was and my relationship with Kaiser has proven to be one that can weather storms.
I am graduating in six months and afterwards, my wedding is during the spring break. We have hired a wedding planner and all is going well, Kaiser has his suit, the venue is booked, the menu is chosen, the cake is designed and invitations were sent.
Five months to go to graduation and I still have not found my dress, the venue got burned down, last week and some of my relatives are unsure whether they will attend.
Four months to go to graduation, dress shopping is stressful and Sibo is not helping me at all. We are still looking for a venue to have the wedding at. We both are opposed to a church wedding and we would like an outdoor wedding. We have found a Dj for our reception and a videographer.
Three months and we are at a bridal store in Dubai, Kai thought I might find my dress here and he is also attending to business.
"Good day." Greta and I greet the store assistant
"Good day, how can we help you today?"
"I need a wedding dress, my wedding is in three months, there is no budget, I was thinking more minimalistic and bare, I would like to accentuate my shoulders, back and waist."
"That is a lot but we will do our best to find your perfect dress. You can come with me." We brought Khanyi with us and she is in the pram.
They bring me five dresses to try on.
"Are there any dresses you like the least?" I go through the dresses and remove the mermaid-style dresses, I hate those types of dresses.
"I hate mermaid-style dresses." There is a dress, made of silk that sticks out, spaghetti straps, low cut back and it is floor length, free-falling and it is ivory. "I love this one already but I want to try other dresses before that one." He nods and I pick a simple trumpet dress.
I walk out and head to the showroom where Khanyi and Greta are.
"You look beautiful."
"I like it but I am not in love with the back and the lace at the bottom bothers me." The store assistant nods and we head back. I pick the Ivory off-the-shoulder dress next.
"I am not a fan of the shoulders otherwise it is great." Greta nods
I get into the dress and pull the straps over my shoulders and I am in love with the person I am in the mirror when I am wearing this dress.
"You love the dress?"
"Very much."
"Let's go show your mother-in-law."
My smile widens as I notice the look on her face.
"You look beautiful and happy, is this the dress?"
"I think this is the dress, I can see myself getting married in this."
