I stared at the clock. It was showing - 8 pm. He hadn't returned from his meeting. One misunderstanding had changed everything in my life. I should inform Aerial. She would be furious at me. I extended my hand to grab my phone.
The door opened with a bang, emerging furious Aerial in the room.
Excitedly, I shot to my feet and hurried forward. Her stomach was rounder than I remembered last time, she was wearing a pink loose dress. I took her in a tight hug.
"I wanna kill you, right now." She said in anger.
I giggled, "You can. That would make things easy." I muttered with tears.
She pulled back and stared at me with her glassy eyes, "We want to come immediately. Edward said you need time." I saw tears in her eyes.
I frowned and drew myself back. I sat on the edge of the bed. She didn't hug me back. She looked pretty upset. I had spoiled everything in my life. It took years to build a relationship but a moment to shatter them.
I shrugged my shoulders. I didn't know what to say. I lost myself, my husband, my friend, my business, everything. At least, she should understand me. Expectations killed.
"You left us, Sienna. I tried your number every day. You should have told me. How could you be so cruel to us? Dad and Andria postponed their wedding. Have you realized? What have you done?" She glared at him.
I was feeling worse. My guilt and torture was going to torment me every day, "I didn't consider it,"
"Of course, you didn't. You should trust your husband. You should trust us." She was mad at me.
"I was... " I couldn't get the right word to describe my condition at that time. I was broken, feeling betrayed, perplexed, scared.
"We were so worried," She said in a soft voice.
"I'm so sorry," I muttered. I didn't realize I was crying until tears dropped on the back of my hand. I wiped the fallen drop immediately. No one needed to know and see me vulnerable.
I stared at her pink heels as she towered over me. She sat next to me and pulled me into a hug, "I'm sorry for shouting at you."
I wasn't certain that I could speak. So I nodded my head. My chin was trembling, I kept my head down. Tears continued to fall.
"Talk to me, Sienna. You know I didn't mean to. I love you. You're my only friend. You don't know how it feels? You just left." She whispered in a cracked tone.
I glanced at her and swiped my fingers on her cheeks, "I don't deserve this." I muttered.
"You deserve everything. Please, don't do this again. Talk to us." She said.
A soft knock reached my ears. My chin lifted, eyes jerked at the door, "Uncle," I shot to my feet, glancing at the door in awe. Guilt choked me, "I'm so sorry." I sobbed. I cast my head down. I didn't know. How could I redo everything?
He strode toward us and took me in an embrace, "Shouldn't you tell me, kid?" He asked me in a soft voice.
"You're not furious at me," I asked in my crack voice.
"Why would I?" He kissed my head.
"Your marriage_" I trailed. I had destroyed a lot of loving things. Andria must be hating me.
"I wanted to do the ceremony with my family," Andria said, smiling.
Uncle stepped back, giving room to his fiance. She hugged me and rubbed her hand on my back, "You need to know. You can trust us, me."
"I'm sorry. I didn't think your wedding would be postponed."
"Don't feel guilty, kid. It's not your fault," Uncle said.
"Thank you." I could only murmur this. I didn't bear thinking about the effects my decision had made on them.
"Let's forget that. Now.." Aerial stood at arm's length, "Congratulations," She smiled.
I smiled despite the tears in my eyes. I wanted to forget this. Would Edward forget this? Would he forgive me? My family has… "Thanks," I muttered.
"We should plan your wedding," Aerial said to Andria.
"Everything is planned. What about this weekend?" Andria asked uncle, blushing.
I was relieved that my action didn't affect their love.
Uncle smiled and nodded, "It's a perfect time." He looked at us.
"We should start the preparations." Aerial embraced me from behind. I relaxed. She wasn't angry with me.
"My kids are having kids," Uncle sighed and strode toward the door. Was it good or bad? I didn't know. He glanced back at us and smiled and paced away.
Andria patted our cheeks, "He's happy to have you back," She said.
"We're happy," Aerial said happily.
"Someone wasn't hugging me back a few minutes ago," I taunted her.
She rolled her eyes, "I'm pretty upset with you." She said, hitting on my shoulder softly.
"Where are my parents?" I asked.
"Well," Andria glanced over my shoulder at her, "Edward wasn't in London. So his parents and your parents don't know anything about this." Andria said
"What?" The shock made my eyes dilate.
"Yes, Edward decided this." Aerial said.
"He already knew where I was," I sighed.
"Yes, I'm glad you already know. I was dying to tell you." Aerial smiled.
"We should make a list but first of all, I need to inform Anna." She strode out of the room, her fingers tapping against her phone
"Congratulations," She hugged me from the side.
I giggled, "Thanks," But it lasted for a few seconds, "I don't know what to do?" I asked.
"About what?" She asked with a frown.
"Edward is upset," I sat on the couch.
