A Little Girl Interrupted the Wedding, Screaming “Don’t Marry Him!”
After agreeing to meet Alex, the woman couldn’t wait for the date they had arranged. She felt more excited than she had in years; after all, the prospect of a new romance was giving her life a new light of life.
So she got ready, carefully choosing a red dress that highlighted her beauty and makeup that highlighted her sparkling eyes. Aurora, watching her mother get ready with enthusiasm, exclaimed.
“Oh, Mommy, look how beautiful you are!”
Alice, touched by her daughter’s compliment, smiled genuinely. It was the first time in a long time that she really felt attractive and happy.
She was ready to give love a chance and see where this new relationship would take her. After leaving the girl in the care of a trusted nanny, the architect went to her date with Alex.
The date was a success; he was an interesting, charming, and handsome man. He shared funny stories about his work as an insurance salesman, and Alice found herself hanging on his every word.
They seemed to fit together perfectly, and that was just the beginning. The days passed and these dates became a pleasant routine.
Their passion for each other only grew, and the woman could hardly believe how lucky she was to have met him.
Shadows of Doubt
Soon they decided to take the next step, and Alex accepted his girlfriend’s invitation to have dinner at her house and meet Aurora. The little girl was overjoyed at the idea of meeting the new man in her mother’s life.
She was looking forward to finally seeing her happy and sharing her affection with someone special. Alice, determined to make a good impression, prepared a dinner that was more like a banquet, choosing each dish with great care and luxury.
When Alex arrived for dinner, the woman felt her heart soar with excitement. He seemed even more charming in her home, and the evening was filled with laughter, conversation, and good vibes.
But that was just her own take of things. However, while everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves, the little girl didn’t feel the same.
She felt something strange. A strange feeling like something was off came over her.
The little girl tried to ignore the uncomfortable feeling, concentrating on the adults’ lively conversation, but deep down something wasn’t right. After Alex left, Aurora finally shared her feelings with her mother.
“Mommy, I didn’t like him.”
The woman was immediately surprised and confused; after all, she was deeply involved with the man and couldn’t see how her little girl didn’t like him too.
“Why would you say that, honey? He was so kind,” said the mother, trying to understand the little girl’s worries.
Aurora hesitated for a moment before replying.
“I don’t know, Mommy. He just doesn’t seem to be what he says he is. I felt something strange when he was here.”
Alice, torn between her desire for happiness and her maternal protective instinct, was perplexed. She didn’t know how to interpret her daughter’s feelings and although a sense of unease had been planted, she was determined to give this new love a chance, hoping that her little one would eventually accept him into their lives.
And so, despite Aurora’s initial doubts, the woman continued to see Alex. Time passed and with it his presence in their routine became more and more constant.
He went to their house regularly and gradually began to act as if he belonged there. In the girl’s eyes, he acted as if he wanted to be the owner of the house, but her mother didn’t seem to notice.
One day Alex shared some disheartening news with his girlfriend. He revealed that his insurance agency had gone bankrupt, leaving him in a precarious financial situation.
He needed money to get back on his feet and asked Alice for a loan. Who, with her kind heart, agreed to lend him a very considerable amount of money to help him out.
But the situation didn’t stop there. Shortly afterwards, the man introduced his sister, Jamel.
He explained that she was looking for a job and needed a place to stay temporarily. The architect, always willing to help, agreed to welcome Jamel into her home and even offered to help her find a job in her architecture office.
“I’ll see what I can do for you, dear. Maybe there’s a job for you there,” she said, happy to help her sister-in-law.
Aurora, however, was becoming increasingly uncomfortable with the whole situation. She couldn’t ignore the feeling that something was very wrong.
The little girl tried to warn her mother several times.
“Mom, I think he’s lying to you. I heard him talking to Jamel about them making it.”
The woman, confused and worried by the girl’s words, asked.
“Getting what, honey?”
The little girl, however, couldn’t fully explain as she had only half heard the conversation and her mother wasn’t there at the right time.
“I think it’s better if you try to be kinder to them, daughter. They’re part of our family now, okay?” her mother said.
Months passed and Aurora remained suspicious and uncomfortable with the presence of Alex and his sister in their lives.
“How can Mommy not see that there’s something wrong with him?” the girl asked herself, frustrated.
“What can I do to show her the truth?”
The Truth Revealed at the Altar
Alice believed that in time her daughter would get used to her partner and start to like him, but fate had something different in store that would only make everything worse. Alex proposed to the architect who, so in love, enthusiastically accepted.
She was so convinced that she had finally found the love she had been longing for after the tragic loss of her husband. And so she didn’t even think twice about it since they had been in a relationship for almost a year.
The engagement ring sparkled on her finger and they began to plan the wedding. But the moment Aurora heard that her mother was engaged, she did everything she could to make her mother break the engagement.
She begged, argued, and expressed her mistrust of the man. She said that he was always asking for money and that his sister was too.
However, her mother didn’t listen and went ahead with the planning.
“Honey, now we are a family. You have to accept them. They’re not bad people. I’ve never understood why you don’t like them. I’m happy, so why aren’t you?”
The days went by and the big day finally arrived. The setting was stunning, exactly as the woman had always dreamed.
It was her second marriage and she felt that she had her late husband’s blessing, that he would surely wish this happiness for her and her little girl. However, something had happened that made her very sad.
Mother and daughter had fought the night before and the little girl had made it clear that she wouldn’t attend the ceremony as she didn’t want to witness her mother marrying a man she didn’t trust. The woman was deeply upset, but with all the preparations ready and after countless attempts to persuade her daughter, she had to go ahead with the wedding even if Aurora wasn’t attending.
The mother believed that in time the little girl would accept Alex into her life once they started living in the same house. And so it went on.
As she walked down the aisle, everything was beautiful and enchanting. Her fiance was waiting for her at the altar with a radiant smile, with Jamel by his side as her maid of honor.
