READ WEBNOVEL Chapter 512 I do
The day flew by and everything was ready.
Zaki and Hinari’s wedding was very private, just like Sei and Davi’s. They invited only a few guests, almost the same guests who came to Davi and Sei’s wedding but with a few others whom Hinari met during her career as an author.
When the sun started to set, the wedding finally started.
Everyone’s eyes were now focused on Zaki, who wore a gorgeous classic black wedding suit tailored to perfection, standing by the altar. His parents were by his side, as well as the best man, Sei. He looked extremely beautiful as usual but he was even dreamier at that moment. He seemed to be quite tense but excitement and nervousness were evident in his eyes.
Sei, the nosy best man beside him, leaned in close to his ear as they waited for the bride’s arrival.
"Relax Zaki. I’m afraid you’re going collapse before your bride arrives if you keep tensing up like that." Sei muttered behind him, causing Zaki’s vein to pop.
"Sei... why don’t you just go sit there like a good boy? I don’t need the best man now, anyway." Zaki retorted and Sei simply smiled, looking quite satisfied.
The first person to come down the aisle was Little Shin, the ring bearer. He looked so adorable in his little man suit that most of the guests let out an audible "nawwww" at the sight of him.
After him was the maid of honor, Davi, who looked stunning in a deep red fishtail dress, which hugged her perfect figure. Sei’s eyes could not be torn away from her as she made her way down the aisle, holding a small bouquet of flowers.
After another moment, the song changed to the wedding march as it was finally the bride’s turn to walk down the aisle.
Zaki’s eyes glimmered in utter wonderment at the sight of her. The scene quickly switched into slow motion for him. The white and red motif glowed under the sun as the gorgeous bride in white walked towards Zaki.
Everything had become dreamy, as if time stood still and they were suddenly transported into wonderland - at least in the eyes of the bride and groom.
Their hearts started to beat as one, almost breathing in sync as their memories flashed like a slide show between them as she walked closer to him. Each step was just so emotional. Their feelings and emotions at that moment were beyond words to define. No, they didn’t even have the time to understand what they felt anymore.
Finally, Hinari reached her beautiful groom. The two gazed at each other and no words needed to be said. Their eyes said it all; the way they felt about each other, the overwhelming feeling of happiness and how unreal this moment was for both of them.
The ceremony started and carried on until it was finally time to take their vows.
"Hinari Zuzuki, do you take Zaki Chen to be your lawful wedded husband, to have and to hold, for better or for worse, for as long as you both shall live?"
"I do."
"Zaki Chen, do you take Hinari Zuzuki to be your lawful wedded wife, to have and to hold, for better or for worse, for as long as you both shall live?"
Zaki gazed at the woman across him, quietly. This was the woman who never gave up on him for almost six years. This was the woman who never left him no matter how much he pushed her away. The person who gave him hope... The person who taught him what love was... the person who taught him how to fight for his life... and the person who gave him a future he thought never existed.
Looking at her, Zaki’s eyes welled but he fought the tears. He couldn’t even imagine a future without her anymore. This was the girl that he had unknowingly been waiting for, and he swore to do anything and everything, to make her smile until his very last breath.
As the sun set on the horizon, as if he was offering the remainder of his life to her, Zaki said...
"I do."
