5 Years Ago
"Liam, do you think there's a problem?"Marcello asked his best friend, a frown making its way on his lips as he straightened a crease on his tux.
Liam laughed while slightly shaking his head."Jezz dude it's been only fifteen minutes calm your balls down."
Marcello glared at him."Yes But Maria is never a single minute late for anything at all and the one day she is late just happens to be the day of our wedding."
Liam sighed."Not to make you any more nervous than you are but my friend you make a solid point."
Marcello's figure tensed at Liam's words. Deep down he had a feeling something was wrong but somebody especially Liam the person who took nothing seriously pointing it out besides him made him anxious.
"I'm going to go check on her, "Marcello said all too quickly and began walking towards the room where Maria was situated before Liam could stop him.
He made it to the room in a record of time but he just couldn't find it in him to walk in.
Each time he gained the courage to walk in his thoughts dragged him down.
Marcello's palms were sweating profusely at the thought of something being wrong.
He took a deep breath and before he could change his mind he walked in.
Maria was lying on the edge of the bed balling her eyes out.
He couldn't help it his heart clenched at her sadness. Whatever made her sad made him sad. He so badly wanted to get rid of all the things that made her sad just so she can smile endlessly without a care to the world.
"What's wrong, tesoro?"Her olive green eyes met his blue ones.
Her orbs carried so much regret within them as she mumbled."I'm sorry," She spoke tears pouring down her cheeks.
His eyebrows thrust up in confusion."What are you sorry for, "He asked fear slowly consuming him.
To say he was deathly afraid of what she was going to say next was an understatement.
She unclenched her fist slowly to reveal a balled-up piece of paper.
He took the paper from her hand and unballed it.
It read she was pregnant.
A smile began to make its way on his lips but before his smile made its way fully across his lips his eyes landed on how many weeks pregnant she was.
4 weeks.
Wait but he wasn't here all month because he was stuck in Japan working on a business plan.
His heart shattered at that given moment.
"I'm so sorry," She cried while her hands jittered.
"What did I do to you?"He asked tears starting to make their way down his cheeks."I loved you unconditionally. I...I've been nothing but loyal to you for the past two years and this, this is how you repay me, "Marcello yelled throwing the paper at her.
