It was the d_day which is the wedding day, everyone which was invited to the wedding could been seen in the church waiting for the bride and groom to come, even the pastor was waiting for them to come so that he can start the wedding service
After waiting for some minutes, not too long, Tonia walked in the church wearing her beautiful wedding gown, with her maid of honor, flower girls, bridesmaids and her little bride, and they all walked inside the church smiling, as they got inside, they sat down, but Tonia was somehow surprised that Maxwell was not in the church yet because she expected him to be in the church before her, but he wasn’t there, so she decided to wait for him to come, after some minutes Maxwell parents and his uncles came to the church and they were surprised that their son was not in the church yet, and they seated and wait for him to come. The pastor who have been waiting decided to asked Tonia about Maxwell where about, because he’s running out of time
“Sister Tonia, what is delaying the groom, look at the time, is 20mins past the time we are supposed to start the service, where is he? Have you called him? Pastor Austin asked anxiously
“Yes pastor, I called him 40mins ago, and he told me that he is on his way coming, but by now he supposed to be here, please pastor let’s wait for him a little, I believe he will be here any moment from now “Tonia assured the pastor and he went back to the alter waiting for the groom
