Enchanted Love

Clara felt her room empty and she couldn’t see anyone around her. The darkness started scaring her as she could hear some tiny voice from the entrance. She widened her eyes when she saw a little baby crying for her help. She ran to the side but she couldn’t reach the baby at any point. There she ran, the more the baby got far.

“Clara. Breathe.” Clara heard her mom’s voice and suddenly the darkness lit up and she realized that she was sitting in the room with her mom. Her face was covered with sweat.

“Are You alright?” Bella was hell scared to witness her daughter’s state. Back then, she was not aware of anything but now seeing her daughter crying for her unborn baby, made her heart bleed. It’s really a hell of a time for any mom to go through if she faces miscarriage all of a sudden. Some may be brave enough to move quite quickly but people like Clara find it very hard to bear the pain.

Clara hugged her tightly. She of course was happy for Alina. But she couldn’t stop thinking about her kid at the same time. Will Alina think that she is jealous? She is not jealous but she misses her happiness.

“A moment is all needed for anyone to decide what is important for them?” Bella’s words always have depth and it surely hits Clara at the right place.

“You can not overcome this alone. At the same time, don’t you think to stand by his side to help him overcome this pain?” Clara enlarged her eyes, giving satisfaction to Bella that she made it right through.

“You are not alone here. Just accept his hand and help him too.” Bella kissed her daughter and left the place. She just hopes Clara takes the right decision at the right timing or else three lives would be spoiled.

“Why is she wearing a veil?” an elder woman asked as Edward stiffened in his position, not able to answer anything. He slightly bends back as his back hits Alex.

“Guess she is allergic to cashews. I didn’t know that. The food contains cashews. Her face is tarnished now and ever her throat got infected as the allergy gets severe.” Alex answered casually. Sally came there with full suspicion.

“Shall we change the dates and stop the marriage now?” Alex knew how to play well. Sally looked at him, not approving his idea.

“How can you be so irresponsible?” Sally slapped Edward’s arms as she scolded her. It’s a miracle that Alex still remembers Anna’s allergic food.

“No need to stop the marriage. It would be inauspicious” Sally smiled as made them sit in front of the fire. The priest adds some oil as Alex gently stops him from adding. Edward sighed to see how much his friend was caring. Edward is already sweating tons because of this heavy dress and the fire was adding more misery to him. Because of Anna’s parents wish the ritual were by the indian priest and the entire process is new and exciting for all to watch.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

Alina came running to the hall as she saw her husband sitting beside Alex. But where the hell is Clara? She searched for her friend and found her nowhere. She was happy when she heard about Alina’s pregnancy but soon she went missing.

“Stand up and first the groom will lead the way” The priest commented as he started chanting some slogans as a blessing for the couple.

“We are invited for the engagement and what is happening here?” a guest who came late asked with a confused stare. He looked at the gift which will suit for engagement but not for marriage.

“He is marrying.” Another one explained the half-day event in a single word.

“Idiot, don’t take rounds. You will become an extra person in Alina’s life” Edward spoke as Alex smirked at his friend.

“Shut up and marry me. It seems Clara won’t stop this marriage. But at the same time, I can’t marry that devil either, “ Alex whispered, which looked like a romantic pose for the audience. The cameraman clicked numerous pics in that pose. Edward started fidgeting with his dress in anxiety. How the hell this audience be so dumb? Cant, they even identify a guy and a girl? From which angle, does he look like Anna?

Alina asked Frank about Clara but he was in no mood to even listen to her words as he is lost in everything. He turned his wheels as he went inside Sowmy’s room with a heavy heart.

“Tie the auspicious chain around the girl’s neck.” The priest announced the last ritual as Edward ate the flower from nearby with tears. He can’t marry Alex. Isn’t it? The best thing is they are not marrying in church. What if the priest announced to them to kiss each other? Edward is damn sure that Alex would even do that.

Alina didn’t even try to witness the poor struggle of Edward as she was busy searching for Clara. She could already see thay she might have remembered her miscarriage and Alina wants to comfort her during this time. They are surely sisters.

“If you tie this chain, I won’t back off before celebrating wedding night” Edward’s words made Alex stop his hand from further actions. Edward smirked at his friend who was shocked to hear such words.

“How shameless today’s generation is?” an elder spoke who heard Edward from behind and she thought Anna’s voice is not well because of the allergic food.

“Shameless. Have some shame and dont worry, I will fulfill your every wish on our wedding night” Alex whispered as he smiled at his friend who wanted to murder his wife and this insane friend. No one should have such a friend.

“stop the marriage” Clara came running like a film heroine who came late at the climax scene to change the entire script with her tears.

Edward smiled broadly as if he was saved at the last moment by a hero from the villain’s clutches.

“See, my sister always saves her brother no matter what” Edward commented but Alex is shocked beyond anything to react. He hell never expected Clara to utter those damn words which he is waiting for long.

“I don’t remember inviting your family. But anyway, as you are here, why don’t you enjoy the meals and leave?” Sally asked, controlling her anger. Clara looks at Sally and doesn’t get any reason for her rude words. This lady poured so much love over her when they married.

“This marriage can’t happen. Please” Clara carefully spoke but shivered with the intensity of all glares. Should she just turn away and run? But she has made up her mind already. She could never back off. Already she felt too late for this.

“Why? Did you just realize that you can’t live without him?” Sally asked with a mocked tone. Clara stared at the lady, not able to find any word to reply to her. Of course, it was a fact but if she utters those, she will be looking like a fool.

“no,” Clara replied instantly and that helped Alex come out from the shock. Okay, she didn’t stop the marriage for this.

“then?” Now Alex asked instantly, showing his displeasure of her reply.

“We are not divorced and we are still married. So you can’t marry anyone” Clara snapped in a confident voice as if she found out the reason so cleverly. All the while Edward prayed hard to let the drama finish easily. Alex walked towards Clara as Edward too followed because of the knot of his dress with Alex’s dress.

Sally got away as if she wanted to check something.

“Your one-word option is expired and so is the hugging option. Did you think that I was bluffing?” Alex asked dangerously as he grabbed her arms.

“Don’t take me easily. I am not going to fall for it this time” Alex spoke as he pushed her and climbed again with Edward to fulfill the rituals. Edward widened his eyes seeing the turn of events. Is it even important to be egotistical at this moment? Isn’t that what he was expecting? But Alex is mad at the choice of words she used to stop the marriage. It’s her time to show how much she can go to get him back in her life.

“I talked with my lawyer. He said it’s not an issue and he will help us. To continue with the ritual” Sally spoke as Alex again resumed his path. Clara stood there blank. She looked around to get some help but nothing caught her attention. Tears threatened to spill her eyes again.

She looked at Alex and of course, he is her happiness and he will always be the only person in her life. The pain of losing a kid is not only subjected to her alone. He is equally affected and he needs her to console him.

With all thoughts battling inside her head, she climbed up to the place where Edward’s respect is at stake.

“No one can snatch you from me” Clara grabbed the flowers and the shawl which connected the groom and bride.

“No one can save you from me.” She spoke and she doesn’t know how this courage came to her as she grabbed him for a deep kiss, startling everyone around her. That was not needed but she needs to prove to him that she won’t let him do this at any cost. Sally gasped as all the audience even though were angry at the little show-off scene, they are happy to see them back together. They both are such an adorable couple for sure.

“I guess my one word or one hug has any importance in front of my kiss” She spoke as she hugged him tightly as sobbed harder.

“For me, your one look is enough” Alex replies with tears in his eyes. And as usual, his words made her feel so special and she regrets even spoiling their beautiful moments.

He kissed her forehead protectively. They both had to pay a huge price for this little fight. Will they be able to forgive themselves for the pain they have inflicted upon? All they know is their love is something so magical and toxic that it will surely fight against all odds.
