wedding day

This was it. Her day. He was everything she'd been looking for. Handsome, charming, witty, loving. She'd dreamed of this day for so many years. Of meeting someone like him. Of a big church wedding. Of flowers lining the aisle. Of his face standing at the front of the church, waiting for her.

As she walked down the aisle toward his beaming face, her mind flashed back through the past months of their courtship. The way he had shown her what it meant to be loved, the little things he did to make sure she knew that he would always love her. The many deliveries of flowers, the thoughtful cards, the romantic dates.
She smiled, remembering.

As she grew closer to the front, to the moment where she would pledge her life to this man whose love was unconditional, all she could feel was trapped.

She turned and ran.
