Chapter 4 - The Bride's Fury
Vanessa's face turned red,
her eyes flashed with malice,
looking down at the child,
who was trembling on the floor,
surrounded by sharp glass shards.
"What just happened?!"
Vanessa shrieked,
her voice high-pitched,
piercing through the silent room,
filled with uncontrollable anger.
Julian breathed heavily,
staring at the mess,
trying to understand the intrusion,
demanding an answer,
"What the hell was that?!"
The little girl looked up,
tears streaming down her pale cheeks,
her lips quivering with intense fear,
as she looked at the angry adults.
"I'm sorry..."
she whispered,
her voice breaking,
"I didn't mean to..."
But Vanessa was completely blinded by rage,
unwilling to accept an apology,
seeing her perfect wedding ruined,
by a dirty,
nameless orphan.
"You little menace!"
Vanessa yelled,
stepping forward fiercely,
raising her hand sharply,
and striking the child across the shoulder.
"Ow!"
the little girl cried out,
shrinking back into herself,
sobbing loudly,
clutching her bruised arm,
terrified of the monster in white.
A guest gasped in disapproval,
stepping out from the crowd,
voicing their immediate anger,
"Don't hit her!"
The room erupted into quiet murmurs,
May you like
shocked by the bride's cruelty,
watching the drama unfold at the altar.
