Short Story: The Weeding.

The wedding

One day I was thinking in my bed when that moment would come. I asked to myself, about that special day, that incredible moment, our wedding. I talked all the day with my girlfriend Sarah about how the wedding would be. When I told her my idea, she got surprised because she never thought that I would propose something like that. We planned all the wedding, the most important things, like what we would do, at what time, etc. We decided to do it the 16th of November in Oklahoma City in the afternoon. When I told my parents they got surprised. We started doing the list of the guests and all the invitations. Sarah was looking for a long white dress, and I for an elegant garment. We had a lot of people that helped us organize the event. The place where we rented the lounge was in the middle of an enormous field in Oklahoma City. We almost rented a work that, a man would throw some colorful fireworks, when the wedding had finished.

The time passed very quickly and the wedding was in five days. The event was almost finished, we had to repair something, and we had to finish sending some invitations, there was a lot to do. We were very anxious but at the same time we were nervous.

On the same night there was too much tension between us and we had a bad time. That would cause the end of the wedding, so we didn’t know if we had to cancel the event or not. In the morning of the next day I went to my parent’s house to tell them the confrontation that I had with Sarah, I didn’t know what I could do, so I went home again, I relaxed, and I had a serious talk with her. We talked for two hours and we decided that the wedding would be carried to the end.

It was the day, 16 of November in the morning, all the things of the wedding were very well organized and all was in excellent conditions. Sarah said: Am I too nervous. Laura said: “Don’t be afraid, all this is perfect!” After several hours the people started coming and the wedding was going very well. I waited some minutes for Sarah, so we could start the wedding. It was a lovely day, without any cloud and with an enormous shinning sun. After some minutes, she appeared, with an incredible dress, she was very beautiful, and she was so cute that she seemed like a princess.

The priest started to talk. When the wedding was finishing, all the sky turned dark with a lot of black clouds, and a very strong wind appeared. We continued with the wedding so we could end up but all the people started going away because there was a very huge tornado coming to us, it was the most enormous tornado of all my life. That natural disaster moved very quickly and destroyed our wedding. The tornado touched the fireworks and all of them started to explode and one hit on Sarah’s leg, she started bleeding and I didn’t know what I could do. The tornado was very close to me, so I started to run, Sarah was dying. I ran very quickly but at the same time I was crying because of what was happening to her. Finally the tornado sucked Sarah, but there were no more deaths. That was the last time she ever saw them, and it was the last time I saw her.
