Chapter 76: Chapter 76
Von POV
I immediately smiled when I saw Lit sitting on the sofa and watching the show, I immediately approached him and hugged him causing him to be surprised.
"Von! I told you not to surprise me." He said annoyed while looking at me evilly causing me to laugh at him.
"I'm sorry, I can't help myself." I laughed and sat next to him.
"What are you doing?" I asked and looked at the book he was holding. "I thought you were watching the show." I added when I saw that he was reading a magazine.
"Dad said, I have to choose a dress to wear for our wedding." He said that made me smile.
"So? You've already chosen something?" I asked, he shook his head then looked again at the magazine he was holding.
"Go shopping." I said so he laughed.
"If you can speak, it's easy for you to shop for clothes, isn't it?" He asked, making me laugh.
"Probably, because I'm not as artistic as you." I said so he laughed even harder then hit me on the arm.
"You're pissed off." I said then stood up from my seat and looked at him.
"You're right there, don't be a mess. I don't need your help shopping for a gown to wear." He said rudely so I laughed and walked away from him.
I stumbled upon the garden where Van and Cleopatra were talking.
"What's up guys." I greeted and approached them, Van laughed when he saw me then moved to where he was sitting so I could sit.
"What's wrong with you Von?" Van asked so I laughed and shook my head.
"No, I just want to trouble you. Lit doesn't want to trouble me." I said so the couple looked at each other then Van took a deep breath and looked at me.
"Von, he's not Lit. He's Lit's twin." He said so I stopped and laughed remembering that it was actually Seraphine.
"Von, haven't you moved on yet? Lit has been gone for a long time." Cleopatra said so I smiled bitterly then looked in another direction.
"Of course I've moved on." I said cause they both look at each other again.
"Von, you're still locking yourself in the past." Van said so I looked at both of them and laughed.
"What about you? Of course I don't do that stuff." I said laughing.
"I've moved on." I added.
"Then why do you still call Seraphine Lit?" Van asked so I was stunned and silent because I didn't know how to answer his question.
"Von, are you sure you're going to marry him?" Van asked again after I didn't answer his question, I smiled at him and nodded.
I'm sure about that.
"Von, let me just remind you, that marriage is a holy ritual that is only done for two people who love each other." Van said then looked into my eyes.
"I don't think you've forgotten Lit yet and you only see Lit in Seraphine's personality because she looks like her." He added.
"What are you talking about Van?" I asked laughing then stood up from my seat.
"Van is right, Von." Cleopatra said so I looked at her.
"Your partner doesn't want to blame you for the decision you weren't sure about." He said so I smiled at them both then looked in another direction and scratched my forehead.
"I know what you're talking about." I said then took a deep breath and remembered again how Lit died in front of me.
I swallowed when I felt tears forming in my eyes again so I laughed then looked up.
"You haven't even moved on yet." Van said so I laughed, until that laugh turned into a sob causing Van to stand up and support me.
"I do not know." I said and looked at the two of them.
"I don't know where my life is going, or what the purpose of my life is Van." I said looking away.
"I'm trying to move on because I don't want to live anymore where my mood depends on when I can't remember Lit and Yezrah, I don't want to live sad, I just want to bring back the old me Van." I said and remembered again how to tell Lit about the promises we made.
"All I want is to live with them, with Lit and Yezrah, but it's only cupid, which way my life is placed." I said then looked at Van who was just listening to me.
"I understand Von." He said then smiled at me.
"I see you're trying that thing, but my only question is are you sure you're going to marry Seraphine? Von remember this isn't a game and she's not Lit." He said the reason for me to be quiet and think.
"If you marry her because you see Lit in her then it's not love that's called Von." He said so I bowed down.
"You only like him because of his face."
"What should I do Van?" I asked so he took a deep breath then smiled at me.
"Do what you think is right Von."
~~~
I am now standing at Lit and Yezrah's grave while holding the flower I bought before I went here.
I immediately placed the flowers on their graves and smiled.
"Hello girls, I miss you so much." I whispered while looking at their grave.
"I remembered what Van told me a few days ago, that's why I chose to go here instead of Seraphine and I's wedding." I added and laughed.
Seraphine and I are set to get married, but because of what Van said, I decided to go to Yezrah and Lit's grave instead of going through with the wedding.
Van is right, that Lit is not Seraphine and I don't really love her. so I chose to go here to the grave of my true love.
"I miss you, I'm sure you two are laughing at me now." I said to sit in front of their grave.
"I'm sorry Lit, if I left your twin alone at the altar, I'd realize that I can't marry a woman I don't love." I said and smiled because I remembered how I told Lit that I wanted to marry her.
"I'd rather be an old man than marry someone I don't love." I whispered and my tears fell.
If I'm not the only one to marry Lit, it's better to be an old young man and wait for the day when I can be with him and Yezrah again.
It's painful for me because I lost my two love ones, my son and Lit. But as Lit tells me, I have to continue living my life because it's not based on others. It is not controlled by anyone but me.
Therefore, I, Von Floyd Vaughn, would rather be an old man than marry another woman who is not Lit. Dahl I know in the whole system of my human being that I will only love Lit, for the rest of my life.
