🎵 Anne Marie fat James Arthur.. Rewrite the stars
Everyone has a dream
A dream where you actually get all you've ever wished for.
At a point in my life I stopped assuming that i was going to be successful
I was very unlucky at everything
Very slow to learn new things
And don't get me started on studying.
I can't comprehend a thing in class
My father was a mechanic and truck driver, my mother was a junkie band member. There was nothing special about me or so I thought
Good boys never fall for me.
It was always the bad boys and they always get me in trouble and then I gave up on relationship totally
But the story changed
Oh hell yeah the story changed
I met a man and I fell in love
And my life took a turn for greatness
And now am happily married to him and we live in a penthouse with our adorable daughter. Bella
I know it quite a transformation.
I never imagined my life would turn out like this... Because am not just happy, I am a mother and a wife
When Bella was three month old
We finally walked the aisle.
A small reception with our close relatives and friends....
I designed my dress, becca's, sally and my Nana and even little Bella.
I still got the touch. It one thing I can do right
I fell terrible ill after Bella was born, I was admitted for weeks, I thought it was another punishment for stealing jessica's husband..i started praying for a chance to be a mother to my child. In ways my mother wasn't for me
I want to wake her up every morning and drive her to school, I want to read her bed time stories and teach her how to ride a bicycle, buy her a beautiful prom dress and cry my eyes out on her graduation sitting in the front roll
God did hear my prayers.
I got better and left the hospital
I got a letter from jessica the day I left the hospital
"Dear Matilda
I would have love to come apologize in person but I am currently on house arrest and Felix placed a restraining order on me.
So this is the best I can do for now
I am still mad that I lost something precious to you... Am partially mad at myself for being such an idiot
I was so angry and I just wanted to end it. I wasn't thinking right, You had everything I worked so hard to build
Am sorry if I caused you any harm .
I would never intentionally hurt anyone
Send my kisses to your daughter
Jessie 🎀"
A part of me want to believe she didn't actually right the letter
I can't imagine her sitting down and actually writing an apology letter to me, it sounds absurd
The letter made me feel kinda guilty.
I did take what belonged to her
But when I spoke to Felix
He said she willingly sighed the divorce papers and her lawyers got her the best appeal
Being married to Felix
Is indescribable, he is just so amazing
Everyday I keep waiting for the mood swings, the arguments, the yelling
Just like in most marriages
But I guess mine isn't one of the most,
It is so blissful, I wonder why I didn't get married to him earlier
I am so happy, words are not even enough
After I made my wedding dress
I realize it was time to get back on track.... Felix already had my equipment stored in our garage.
He says whenever am ready. It right there and he has always been so supportive and encouraging
So I reached out to an old friend
I found Stacy on Facebook and contacted her
It was time and I think am ready
Stacy showed up by noon
She was as cranky as usual
After taking over twenty minutes to stroll round the house she joined me back in the living room
"This shit is crazy.... I can't believe you own this place, I can't believe you live here. Where did you find this dude. This motherfucker must be filthy rich"
"He's doing OK"
"Okay..... Look at you glowing like the morning sun"
I chuckled
"That happiness my friend "
"Motherhood suits you girl. You look so fine"
"Thanks babe.... I'll have Rosita bring her right away "
I stood up and called Rosita
Felix hired her back when she lost her job. And she has been really helpful and
Bella had her pacifier dancing in her mouth. Her appetite is alarming, she's always hungry
"Awwn look at this cute little Tilda, she's so adorable and big too "
"I know right, she's draining me every minute "
She carried her in her arms and paced around the living room while I gave her a quick recap of everything so far
"She's so beautiful "
"Have You been listening to a thing I've been saying all day "
"Kinda..... But damn Tilda, You are so lucky girl... When you went MIA I thought you have arrested or something "
"Wow thanks Stacy "
"No am serious, I couldn't think of any reason why You would disappear like that after showcasing your designs at the fashion show and getting that much recognition "
"I guess it wasnt time then but it time now "
"Really "
"Yes.... I have decided that I want to open my own fashion line. And I want you to join me, that's if of course you are interested "
she sat beside me and turn towards me
"Are You being serious "
"Yeah. I love what I do and I miss it, after I designed my wedding dress I just can't wait to get back to it"
"Lemme see what it looks like"
I brought out the iPad and show her pictures of the wedding
"I can't believe.this. You make such A beautiful bride, and this dress.. Damn! You made this..... Girl this is amazing. Why did you bottle all this up"
"Well I didn't exactly know I could do this, I just thought if I made mistakes It my dress.... I would wear it like that"
"Well am glad you didn't show any of this to Eleanor "
"Am really sorry about your job"
"Oh honey, its about time, Eleanor doesn't compliment her staff she uses them..... My job at the cosmetic store is a waste of time anyway. I spend all day filing my nails and watching the ad video over and over again"
"So.... Does that mean You're in"
"Of course I'm in "
"Great, so where do we start from"
"First we need a workshop, then we have to work on publicity.. I suggest we look for your old pictures from the fashion show, along with your wedding dress. We could even use Bella has your model for baby's outfit
What'd you think "
"Sounds Terrific.... You have got brains girl, is this what Eleanor has been ignoring since "
"She's not worth it... "
"Okay so my hubby and I are working on a place but my equipment are in the garage. I guess we can start from there and I need to be closer to Bella, she's still so little "
"Sure..... That's a great idea... You are made for this T, it inborn "
I smiled
"And together we can make such a great team. What do you say to Bella's collection "
"You go.. Girl"
We spend the whole afternoon chatting before she had to leave
Felix returned home late
And he went straight to his daughter's room like always
She was fast asleep in her cradle and he was watching her sleep
And I enjoy watching him watch our daughter sleep.
It like butterflies in my stomach
It gives me so much joy
"Hey! I thought I'd find you here"
"Heyyy.... Don't just stand there. "
I walked into his arm and he kissed my cheeks
"I missed you "
"Me too, what took you so long"
"Shusssssh... You don't want to wake her now"
"Sorry daddy "
I whispered
After a while we returned to our room across her's
"So Stacy came by today. And she has agreed to be a part of Bella's collection "
"That's great "
"We are starting by Saturday "
"So have you gotten all that you need"
"We will go shopping for that on Friday .... We'll probably need more hands... I will be hiring people. Am about to be my own boss, can you imagine that"
"Of course I can. And I know you're going to make a great boss "
"Not like you"
"Ahhh now don't go there... Have been a lot nicer lately"
"Uhhm and why is that "
"I am too happy to let any of their shit get to me, but I still cut out slacks which is something a good boss must exhibit "
"Okay so now am getting superior advice "
"Yeah.... And you should be grateful, I don't usually give this things out for free"
"hahaaha... Very funny. so where have you been. Dinner got cold already"
"I need to take a quick shower "
"Okay "
He took over fifteen minutes in the shower usually he'd stay this long if we were both in it...
When he eventually came out
He was looking as fresh as a nicely baked bread....
"Wow... That too forever"
"Did You miss me already "
"You still haven't answer my question "
"I will in due time"
"I'm curious " I pout
"My mom called again today, she wants to know if she can come pick Bella over for the weekend "
My sweet mother in law, she didn't attend our wedding and that still kinda hurts. I know she has been trying to see Bella all this while but am the obstacle.
She just doesn't want to see me
And that's too bad. Am rooted here
This is my home and this is my family
"Did she really say she'll come here herself to pick Bella up"
"I gave her an ultimatum. I can't risk my baby in the hands of strangers. She either comes or forget about it"
"She still hates my guts"
"She'll come around eventually, let's go"
"Where "
"To get the answer to your question"
He led me out through The backdoor and my back lawn didn't look the same anymore
It had turned into a rose garden all of a sudden
I gasped with my hand against my mouth
"How.... When did you do all of these"
"Well.. I did try to get you out of the house but you won't budge so I had to secretly get it done with you in the house"
"Ohhh my God, it beautiful "
"Not as beautiful as you are"
"I don't know what to say. You keep amusing me everyday.. A rose garden. My Nana could sleep here, she loves roses "
"And I love you"
I blushed and he picked me my nose
"Is this how you will keep spoiling me everytime "
"Every day of my life. For as long as I live. Do you know everyday when I walk into the elevator at work. I remember that wild girl that almost crashed my ride up just because she wants to say hello to an old friend"
"You set my butt on.... I was so terrified "
"And daring too"
He moved closer and carried me on his waist
"My shorty. My whole world has found a new meaning because of you.building and making memories. Thank you for always, Now let's rewrite our stars together"
I kissed him with every ounce of breath in me.. I can never get tired of doing this.... This is my world and it means everything to me
I don't know what tomorrow holds
But I know I am willing to go on adventure with this man for as long as I live..........
