Kyrah knew every single word Linda said was right she needed to forget about Jinyoung and move on. He even rejected her not just her, but her baby too. She was determined to live her life with grit. from now on she would no longer be taken advantage of. not anymore.
Weeks later, the news of Jinyoung and Mi Rae's wedding had spread all over the city it was portrayed as the wedding of the century. Of course it was a wedding not just between two wealthy families, but also two of the biggest companies in Korea Woolim and Jang cosmetics.
Kyrah carried on with her life as usual. Of course she often heard news of the upcoming wedding floating around the office, but she decided she won't let it get to her. It was everyone's topic of discussion anyway and aside from that, at this point she really couldn't care less.
Her and Linda had drawn really close over the time. After work they would always hang out, make funny jokes about the name of her child, and even guess the baby's gender. Linda had proved to be a true friend. She also encouraged her a lot.
1 whole month passed.
Jinyoung's wedding had drawn close. It was the day after tomorow . Kyrah didn't feel like working on this particular thursday, but she couldn't stand being home depressed either. She was deep in thought when Linda snapped her out of her reverie. You need to make copies of these she said as she handed over some documents to her. As Kyrah walked over to the copy room she still seemed lost in thought.
Linda followed stealthily behind her and screamed suddenly which caused Kyrah to throw the documents and send them flying in the air. "what did you do that for"?Kyrah asked with a shocked expression on her face. It's just that you seemed so out of it Linda said as she bent over to pick the documents lying on the floor.
Are you disturbed about the wedding this saturday? Linda asked carefully as she observed Kyrah. No not exactly, i'm not disturbed rather i'm full of rage. I don't think Jinyoung deserves to be happy. No, he doesn't . Not after everything he put me through. "So are you going to the wedding or not"? Linda cut her as she was speaking. Wedding? who's wedding? Jinyoung's of course. And who said anything about attending? Kyrah said angrily.
Your anger is seriously misplaced right now. Linda said. you should channel it in the right direction that's why i want us to go to the wedding. Prove to him that you're not one to be messed with. He can't step all over you and get away with it you need to prove to him that despite what he put you through you're still okay.
Kyrah saw reason in what Linda said she wasn't going to be a lame coward she was going to attend that wedding and do so in grand style. You know what Linda, you're right. Kyrah said as she got up and placed the documents she was holding on the copy table. But we definitely wont show up looking lame.
Right back at you Linda said excitedly we'll go shopping for dresses after we get off work. Call? call. Kyrah said as she smiled at Linda. As soon as they got off work they both went to pick up dresses at delite's. Delite's was a luxurious dress shop that only dealt with designer apparel of course they didn't have enough money to buy a dress there but they were ready to bleed out of their pockets to rent a dress.
Though Kyrah never had a good sense of style, good thing she had Linda. Linda could be mistaken as a fashion ikon always slaying. Linda pointed out a white laced dress that flowed generously it had delicate embroideries on the sleeves and around the cleavage which was a v cut with flower patterns that looked like they glistened in the sun. That was the perfect dress that was sure to turn heads at the wedding. She asked Kyrah to try it on and it was beautiful. Her baby bump hadn't started showing as she had a small physique the dress fitted on her body perfectly.
What do you think? Linda asked impatiently. It's perfect. Kyrah said but one thing is missing Linda looked into the dress intently but couldn't tell what it lacked The colour is off Kyrah said well i'm not the bride, neither do i want to be, and this isn't exactly a fitting occasion to appear in white.
"So what colour do you want?" Linda asked curiously "Black".
Black? seriously you'll show up in black? yes it's the perfect colour i'll be renting this dress in black please she said as she turned to the shopping assistant.
Soon Linda also picked up her dress and they were done for now, though, you do know we still need to get our hair and makeup done right? Linda asked Kyrah yeah i almost forgot about that. Where you planning to ruin that beautiful dress with your horrible hair? they both looked at each other and burst into laughter. I already booked Diva for us on the morning of the wedding we'll have a total makeover and then leave from there. What am i ever going to do without you Kyrah said as she hugged Linda tightly.
_________The wedding morning________
Kyrah and Linda arrived early enough to get their hair and makeup done it finally felt real to Kyrah she was almost there. she was about to meet the man she hated face to face how would you like your hair ma? the hair stylist asked. I want straight classy hair Kyrah said Linda looked at her proudly and said that's my girl.
Kyrah's hair and makeup was done to perfection she didn't understand who she was seeing in the mirror in front of her she was beautiful she looked breathtakingly gorgeous coupled with the black lace dress she was on another level.
Linda couldn't shut her mouth her friend had transformed into a completely different person you should dress like this often, do your hair, wear makeup, she said as emotional tears welled up in both her eye's seeing Linda emotional made Kyrah emotional too she dabbed her eye's with some tissue.
Okay time to go Linda better now than never Kyrah said in spite of herself. They walked out of the shop together and got into the car. at that moment, Kyrah remembered. O,h the invites Linda do we have invites? Kyrah asked in panic of course we don't we weren't invited Linda said nonchalantly just as Kyrah was about to speak Linda flashed two invites in front of Kyrah's face. You're silly, Kyrah said. By the way how did you get the invites? I thought you would never ask. Remember Hye Joo, my friend. oh the prosecutor who helped us out, yes she said her friend a judge was given two invites for her and her husband but they couldn't make it because they previously planned a staycation so that's how the tickets were given to Hye Joo and then she gave me the tickets isn't that so nice of her.
We finally arrived at the location where the wedding was taken place it was a resort wedding by the beach. It was beautiful the area faced the breathtaking sunset which shadows casted on the sea behind the aisle. On each side of the aisle there were fresh white roses in bundles placed on flower holders. spread down the aisle were red rose petals moist and soft, so it wouldn't feel rough on the feet there were a group of people with expensive suits and fancy dresses seated on seats placed on the sand the ceremony was about to start. We were a little late all the guests had been seated.
Kyrah and Linda walked up to the entrance of the sitting area which was highlighted with a flowery arc that had a variety of colour, and flowers a security guard stood there in front of a short podium checking invites Kyrah and Linda handed in their invites Linda went in and took her seat but Kyrah didn't she just stood there.
Soon the priest walked in and took his place at the edge of the aisle behind his podium, after being called in by the master of ceremony after him the groomsmen followed next he said welcome the groom with a resounding clap. As Jinyoung walked down the aisle and took his stand in front of the groomsmen Kyrah couldn't help but feel her blood boil inside her. Next the bridesmaids entered and took their position opposite the groom and groomsmen.
Kyrah had taken her position in front of the aisle looking straight into Jinyoung's eye's everyone thought she was trying to find a seat until the master of ceremony came out and said....
"Everyone please stand for the bride"
As everyone was on their feet Kyrah walked down the aisle. There were soon whispers all around people started wondering out loud. Is that the bride?, why is she wearing black? she's gorgeous, who's that? if she's the bride who's the lady in the wedding dress over there behind the arc? soon questions started floating around.
Kyrah was looking at Jinyoung eyeball to eyeball and he knew all the answers. despite how gorgeous she looked he knew the woman walking towards him. It was Kyrah.
