I glared at Zake for using the F-word to which he just held his ears and got down from the stage.
We are now at our wedding reception listening to everybody's speech about Kezr and I.
Next up, little Alex got on the stage, snatched, literally snatched the mike from the stand, dragged a stool and stood on it clearing his throat.
"Uncle K. Where do I start?... Hmm...." Kezr narrowed his eyes at the little monkey on the stage.
"Oh, I know! What was her name? Oh yeah, Selena." Everyone bursted into laughter and Kezr gulped beside me.
"Who's selena?" He went to say something but Alex cut him off, "Ella, you wanna know who she is? Lemme tell you."
I pinched Kezr's arm and he pouted while rubbing his arm up and down.
If Selena is who I think she is. I'll snap Kezr's neck.
"Selena was Uncle K's love. His life. The love of his life. He loved her dearly." I felt anger boiling inside me and I wanted to slap Kezr in front of everybody.
"Babe, it's not who you think it is." I nodded sarcastically and he sighed.
He glared at Alex but Alex didn't stop.
"Remember Ella, you told me when you showed him Selena Gomez's photo he didn't respond to it and instead diverted the topic saying you were beautiful? It was because he remembered his love, Selena, at that moment"
Kezr face palmed and Layla, Zake, Eric and Aria were laughing while Maria was confused just like me.
But I wasn't just confused, I was furious.
"Who the fuck is she? Say it already?!" Kezr's eyes widened at my words but I didn't stop.
"I swear if I find that Selena I'll kill her. Who is she huh? Your loVe? Your LiFe? Your LoVe Of ThE LiFe?" I mocked.
"Babe-" he got stopped when Zake laughed and said, "He used to kiss her every morning too."
I gasped and a pain smeared through my heart.
He said he never had a girlfriend to love or to kiss, although he did lose his first kiss to someone in his 8th grade.
"Why, why? I hate you!!" I slapped his shirt and grabbed him by his collar, everyone around us was just laughing and looking at us amusedly.
"If I still find that you love her, I'll kill you and her! You hear me? I'll kill you, you fucker!" He just kept looking at me with an amused expression while Layla came to me and pulled me away from Kezr because I was sure as hell about to pounce on him.
"Ella? You wanna see her?" I went to the stage and nodded my head with tears in my eyes.
"No, don't she might kill her." Zake shouted making me throw my sandal at him to which he dodged it and it landed right on Kezr's head.
