Two and a half years ago

Today is a big and special day for me, for us. After a long proving, fight and shoot with my own hands, blood spilled. The day is finally arrived. The day where I could finally call her my wife, my Russian beauty.

Alyona Valentina Stanislav and will be Alyona Valentina Stanislav Angelo soon. What the most satisfying thing to heard for the rest of my life.

When I first met her. She was attending an anniversary party of my company. She came with her father, of course. The famous, powerful businessman and underground mafia in Russia, Mr. Sergei Stanislav. But I never knew his first name, but people always calls him with that name. His first name is remind a secret for the world.

But after tying a knot with his daughter, I’m hoping I could finally know his first name. But it won’t be a problem if as the time passed I still couldn’t know his name. I’m truly fall in love with his daughter, not obsess with his power. Especially, I don’t want an enemy like him. I don’t have a dead wish before marrying his daughter.

That is why, asking for her hand is a rough and hard time for me. Mr. Sergei Stanislav really want me to do his work, his dirty work. So that I can prove myself to him, I am capable and suitable for his daughter.

After all, it’s worth the fight, sweat and blood. The Russian beauty is going to be mine forever after today. The thought of it pleased me in many ways. Alyona is a men eye-catcher. She did nothing to make every men go down on their knees. All she did was just stand and smile. A very sweet smile.

I heard the door being push opene. Alyona and I decided to have an indoor wedding with all white, pearls and diamonds. She deserve the world. She say it, I’ll get it for her. Just as simple as that if you’re in love with the woman of your dream. Kyle appear on the door, getting in, and close the door behind him.

Kyle is a lawyer slash a close friend of mine. I trusted him after he saved my life of getting accused about sex trafficking with the company I run. So when my father retiring, about ten years ago, I was 18 years old then. I was forced to continue my father’s legacy with him teaching me by my side until I can stand and run the company by myself.

“You ready to be a married man?” Kyle ask in a teasing way. He, himself wear a black suit and he’s my best man.

“As ready as I could never think of.” I answer him. Fixing my tie and checking my all attire one last time, before it’s time to be waiting for my bride to walk down the aisle.

“Let’s go than.” Kyle pointed the door with his head. His smile is matching mine. He’s happy for me, I can tell. He know everything about me as I know his, that’s why we’re still best friend up until now. It takes a lot of time to built a friendship like us.

I take a deep breath for the last time, before my breath get taken away for seeing my bride.

Standing in the middle of entrance, I can see people on their seat through my now blurry eyes because of the light focus on me. All I can see is the beautiful decorated altar. A small stage with white flowers decoration and a priest ready on set.

“Go, man.” I heard Kyle said, pushing me a little to start walking. So I start walking with my only goal is to reach the altar. It was just silent when I walk down the aisle. Kyle is just right behind me, then he stand beside me, to my left.

Not long after I reached the altar, the music started to play. A slow tempo song, it’s our favourite to dance to. It’s the piano version only, so there’s no lyrics, there’s just melody.

My eyes stuck to the entrance where my bride will walk with her father. When she appear on the door frame, my head is spinning. She’s such a breathtaking woman I’ve ever seen. Even when she’s wearing a veil, I can see the smile on her face as she walk down the aisle.

I stand there, stiff and slightly shaking. I thanked God that nobody is looking at me. Every eyes is watching the beautiful bride making her walk down the aisle.

It feels like a painful slow walk, but once she make it to the altar I feel like the world doesn’t exist. There’s only me and her. Mr. Sergei Stanislav hand me her hand over. No words exchange between us, but I don’t really care. All I care right now is to tie the knot with my woman officially.

Every moments feel like I’m over the moon. Our hand joined and eyes staring into each other. It was our moment, until the priest bring us to the real ceremony.

“Repeat after me. I, Alyona Valentina Stanislav, take you Dave Brian Angelo to be my husband, my partner in life and my one true love. I offer you my solemn vow to be your faithful partner in sickness and in health, in good times and in bad, and in joy as well as in sorrow. I will cherish our union and love you more each day than I did the day before. I will trust you and respect you, laugh with you and cry with you, loving you faithfully through good times and bad, regardless of the obstacles we may face together. I give you my hand, my heart, and my love, from this day forward for as long as we both shall live.” For two seconds she look at me, then to the priest before repeating what he just said. I listened to each words. How that words will change my life forever.

After she’s finished, the priest turn to me. My heart is beating so fast, I tighten my grip on hers. I tried to listen to what the priest said, but my ears just block them. But I remember every words. So I repeated those.

Kyle give the rings to the priest and the priest told us to get the ring and put it on each other’s fingers. After she put the ring on my finger, I bring her ring hand up and kiss it as my eyes make contact with hers.

“By the power of God, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride.” The priest gestured me to kiss my bride. So I don’t waste time. I pull off her veil and reveal her beautiful face, my Alyona, my wife and my forever.

“I love you so much.” I mouthed to her.

“I love you too.” She mouthed back to me with a shy smile.

I cupped her cheeks and lean in to her. I press my lips to hers and let it rest longer as I heard the crowd unstopped claps.

“I present to you, Mr. and Mrs. Dave Angelo.” The priest announce after we break the kiss.

Today is the happiest day of my life. To be unite with the love of my life. I’m grateful for her and for everything.
