Sweetest Nightmare's

Not Given a Choice

"Hayden, where have you been?" Drake - the father of Hayden and Jay asked when he saw Hayden walking towards him.

Hayden smiled sweetly. "I'm from the toilet, Dad."

Shaking his eyes, Hayden looked around when he realized that he had not found the whereabouts of Emely and his younger brother Jay. "Mother and Jay, where?"

Drake snorted tired. "Maybe they're looking at your future wife."

Hayden nodded in understanding. He glanced at the small clock that coiled around his wrist at a glance. "Aren't these weddings supposed to take place in two minutes? Why didn't anyone tell me to get ready?"

"Ah that. The wedding was delayed by half an hour, because it looks like your future wife needs more time to prepare."

The handsome man smiled sweetly while bowing his gaze at a glance. "Ah, so it seems."

...***...

Felu sat speechless on the sofa that was in the bride's special waiting room. The girl's appearance has now completely changed.

Her body was wrapped in a beautiful snow-white wedding dress. The mane is simple, like the shape of a slightly messy rope loop with the finishing touch of the embedded beaded headpiece. Looks so beautiful charming.

His makeup seemed fresh and not too excessive. Given that the girl does have a perfect skin texture and facial posture, she does not really need makeup that is too striking.

Feli waited patiently. Waiting for the wedding to be done so that he can talk alone with Hayden and explain the real situation.

His eyes looked so empty, fixed on the corner of the room he was in. If only makeup did not cover her facial skin, puffy eyes and pale skin, it would be clearly visible.

The beautiful girl did not have enough sleep and rest last night. The current condition of his body, was arguably so weak and did not have enough power left.

Everything he's been through these past few days, he feels it's been pretty outrageous. Too draining of energy and mind. Too painful and sad.

Sometimes, he felt that God was so cruel to him. His life feels so messy. He did not know why he felt, too often through such a difficult time in recent times, especially since his father died.

He did not even know how he could survive until now. The thought of suicide has been coming to her mind for the past two years.

He was confused, why until now he can still hold back and become a strong girl, like now.

Father died. Her brother hated her. Her love story with Hayden is shattered. Hayden hated her and now, she had to take over as the bride of the man who hated her.

Why would Jane run away? Wasn't she pregnant? What is the real reason behind all this? Is there something he doesn't know? Did Hayden and Jane hide something from him?

A variety of questions revolved around Feli's mind, making his focus so divided.

Feli let out a rough breath while slowly bending his gaze. Crying out? No. gabe. Tears are no longer left in the fertilizer, it is drained.

"Feli ..," said Mika who was suddenly sitting next to Feli and clasping her hands.

Feli slowly looked up, until the hazel bead that looked so weak, met the Netra Mika who was looking at him with a sad look.

The girl smiled softly. "Yes, Brother?"

Feli chuckles bitterly. "Is that questionable?"

Mika gave a rough breath while giving a quick glance. "You can tell Hayden the real situation later. That marriage, it wouldn't be considered a real marriage, if the name Jane the priest mentioned was on the altar later."

"Are you sure, if Hayden won't realize, that the bride isn't Sister Jane?"

Mika nodded faintly. "Hmmm. You don't have to worry. We've prepared a special wedding veil that's a little thick, so Hayden or everyone who sees you, won't be able to recognize your face."

Feli looked at Mika with a worried look. "Does that make sense? Isn't it, on the altar later, Hayden will open his wedding veil? After all, Hayden must have recognized my voice when I made the sacred promise of marriage."

Mika gently touched Feli's shoulder and slightly squashed it. He tried to convince Feli who was panicked, that all this would go smoothly and well. "You take it easy, Mrs Wilson will definitely find a solution to that."

Feli let out a rough breath while shaking in disbelief. "It's ridiculous. None of this makes sense, brother."

...***...

"Mom, what exactly are you thinking? Why did Mom ask Feli to replace her brother, as the bride?" Jay bombards the mother with questions she thinks are necessary to explain.

Emely and Jay are currently walking towards the room where Hayden's wedding is about to take place.

"Mom had no other choice Jay. We have to keep this wedding going, no matter what."

Jay looked at the mother with a look of disbelief. "Mother, how can this marriage continue? And Mom just changed her bride?"

Emely stopped her steps right then and there, making Jay do the same. He twisted his body so that he could face each other with Jay standing behind him.

Emely looked at Jay with a serious look, along with a sharp look. "Don't you say it?! I don't have a choice."

Jay took a rough breath while rolling his eyes panted. "But Hayden will know that his bride is not Jane."

Emely snorted tired. "Calm Jay. This marriage will go as it should. As for who's married to Hayden, we can talk about it and explain it to Hayden later, after the wedding is over."

Jay looked at the mother with a sharp look along with his face that showed full seriousness. "What is the reason for Mom, so you dare to do something risky like this?"

"You've heard the reason. You heard what I told Feli before, didn't you?"

"D-two years ago ... Hayden had intended to propose to a girl. She's already bought a pretty flower and a ring, but somehow, she's back in a mess."

Emely's words that Jay heard earlier, managed to spin itself in the handsome man's mind.

"My son was depressed then and a few days ago, he came to me with a happy look for the first time. He asked me and his father to propose to your brother."

The others turn around, making Jay look at the full mother. "Is that all true? Why don't I know about it?"

Emely let out a rough breath while giving a quick glance. He tried to control his cries that could break at any time, as much as possible. "Because Hayden, never wanted to share his suffering with anyone."
