Chapter 31

Kiara got ready for the day after her grandmother had left telling her that they had to go for the wedding dress fitting that morning.

She did not understand why the marriage had to be rushed, even though she remembered agreeing to it because of the situation of things in their family, she did not expect it to be this rushed.

"Why do they just have to rush through things without letting me get to know the person I will be getting married to better."

"I know it's definitely that rude guy who almost knocked me over with his car last time. I don't even know if my dreams are just trying to trick me by colliding with my reality." Kiara said as she put on her dress.

As she was still getting ready, her phone rang out and it was her best friend, Rachael calling. She got excited at the call and quickly picked it up.
