The Chocolate Lovers' Diet
“He takes my hand and squeezes it.
‘This is a lovely wedding, Jacob,’ I tell him truthfully. ‘You’ve surpassed yourself. I hope that you’ll double your bill when you send it to Marcus.’ He laughs gently. ‘You’re a lovely lady,’ he says. ‘Marcus must be mad.’ ‘Yadda, yadda,’ I say. If too many more people tell me how lovely I am or how mad Marcus must be, then I will be bawling my head off very soon. As it is, I’m extremely pissed and that seems to be helping to numb the pain. ‘You promised me a ...wedding that no one would forget. Well, I’ve certainly had that.’ ‘I didn’t mean it quite this way.’ ‘I’m enjoying it anyway,’ I tell him. And, bizarrely, I am. I even opted to stay in my wedding dress, complete with beautiful, sparkly tiara and veil. I have to face it, this might be my only chance to wear a dress like this so I may as well make the best of it.
The room looks beautiful. Each table is decorated with lavish arrangements of white flowers, and a bunch of helium balloons anchored by chocolate-coloured ribbons stretches towards the ceiling, bobbing gently in the warm air.MoreLess
