When she came back, her hands were busy replying to messages while she glanced around casually.
"Why is your house so empty? Didn't you decorate it?"
"Didn't you say that we should keep everything simple?" I responded indifferently.
Bella Smith was speechless, her eyes fell on the countdown "7".
"Time flies so fast, our wedding is in a week."
I tore off two pages of the calendar and read, "Our wedding is in five days." The wishes written on those two pages were "ride the Ferris wheel together" and "watch the sunrise and sunset together", but Bella Smith would never notice anything about me.
At this time, my father called, and I went to the balcony to chat briefly. When I came back, Bella Smith was still looking at her phone.
"What's the matter? I seemed to hear something about a visa."
" Nothing, just work." I said perfunctorily.
"Well, please don't plan a honeymoon. I'm too busy to go."
"I know." I replied indifferently.
Since Steven came back, she couldn't bear to be separated from him for even a moment. Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, I handed the star necklace to Bella Smith.
Her calm eyes suddenly lit up, "So it's here with you. I've been looking for it for a long time."
"I know, I saw the high-priced lost item post you posted online." I sneered. One million for an old star necklace, and the total cost of our wedding was only two hundred thousand.
I looked at Bella Smith and suddenly asked, "Where's your wedding ring?" She was stunned for a moment, then looked at her bare fingers and said, "I don't know when I lost it..."
Bella Smith wanted to explain, but another message came in on her phone, which was Steven's exclusive notification tone. She took a look, stood up and kissed me on the forehead.
"I'm sorry, husband. I've been too busy lately. I'll leave it to you to worry about the wedding. After this busy period, I promise to make you the happiest man in the world."
The taciturn Bella Smith suddenly spoke sweet words. In the past, I would have been very happy and felt that I had finally warmed up the iceberg. But now, I just washed my face with disdain and continued to be busy with my own things.
Time passed little by little, and soon it was the day before the wedding. The corresponding wish on the calendar was "have a reunion dinner together", which was my biggest wish for more than 20 years. But I also know that this wish will never come true. Dad will not forgive Mom, and I will not forgive Bella Smith.
I went on the Ferris wheel by myself and watched the sunset from the Ferris wheel. The sunset covered the city where I grew up, and all the memories seemed to have dissipated in the evening breeze. Steven posted a new status. The whole family was having dinner, and his mother smiled as Bella Smith picked up food for him. The caption was: "Both parents met to discuss the final wedding details."
I was not angry, I just found it funny. Whose wedding? Mine, or Steven 's? I blocked and deleted Steven , and wanted to say something to Bella Smith. I edited it for a long time, but didn't send it out.
Just as I was about to go home, Bella Smith called.
"Where are you, why aren't you home?"
"Send me your location. I miss you."
