The wedding was bustling with people moving up and down, left and right, some seated and others trying to locate their assigned seats. A lady sat at the piano and played a soft melody keeping the atmosphere nice and fun.
Laura adjusted her dress once more. The wedding was about to start, and she was a bit early.
Her blue silky dress kept sticking to her legs, it was uncomfortable and the tiny hairs on her legs stood at attention.
She spotted her mom helping direct the guests to their seats. It was Laura's sister's wedding and most family members were pretty busy.
Finally the guests settled in and the music changed. The groom was about to enter the hall along with the groomsmen. It's a typical Nigerian wedding, but for some reason the wedding hosts are not late. And the guests are still coming. The groom Adam and his friends danced into the reception hall with cool Afro Beats bouncing out of the speakers.
Soon it was time for the bride Maria to step in with her friends. Laura would have been among them but she didn't want to learn the dance.
They stepped into the hall in a well practiced dance moving in and out making oval and star shapes covering the bride and then finally revealing her when they reached the stage.
Adam looked lovingly into her eyes and helped her up and beside him on the royal bridal chair.
Laura watched carefully and focused on recording with her camcorder. She was a videographer and part of the camera crew.
Even though she couldn't join the dance, she was glad she was at least doing something valuable.
She focused on the bride then the bridesmaids and that was when she saw her.
Latifah, her literal wet dream. Her hand shook and she paused the video she was recording.
Latifah is one of Maria's close friends and Laura has had a crush on her since high school. Or maybe even before that. Now Laura had started university and she still hasn't fell in love with anyone or even had a new crush. It's always been Latifah. She has already accepted the fact that she will probably never like a guy. She wished she could be like Maria, all pretty, lovely and attracted to men. But no, she had to be the rainbow sheep of the family.
Latifah suddenly caught Laura's eyes and her next action was to come over and pester the girl. She always thought Laura was a cute but stubborn little sister. Their eyes met and Laura looked down at her camera. She was trying to figure out how to escape Latifah, but it wasn't working out well. Latifah in her torquoise dress, her hourglass shape all out on display and her boobs looking round and luscious. Laura wanted to bury her face in them. At least once in her lifetime. It was definitely on her bucket list.
Latifah was there and then she was here, poking Laura's shoulder. She would poke her dimples too but she was safe today since she had full makeup on.
"Babygirl, what are you up to?" She asked, leaning over to see the screen of the camera.
Laura could smell her, she could smell the sweet floral scent of her and the expensive musk that makes Laura feel like melting.
Laura looked up and smiled. "I'm shooting videos, I'm with the camera crew today."
"Okay, Laura baby, I saw you struggling with your dress, and I have something that might help.Bathroom? You can work after."
Laura nodded. Because the dress was really acting up. She got up and together they went to the staff bathroom
