It's the big day of Natalia Rivera, she should be happy but she just wasn't. The reason she wasn't was because the two people that she needed, no wanted to be there weren't. Her son Rafe was standing looking at his mother, "Mama?"
Natalia sighed, "Yes"
"Are you okay?"
Natalia was hesitant, she didn't want Rafe to worry, "I'm okay honey"
Rafe of course didn't believe her. Though his mother hadn't come right out and said anything, he knew that she did not love Frank Cooper. He was shocked that his mother agreed to marry the man, even after he thought that her heart belonged to Olivia Spencer. His mother had no idea that he thought that Olivia was the perfect person for her.
"Mama?"
"Yes honey"
"I thought that Emma was going to be here"
Natalia stood still, "I-I"
"Mama"
"I thought she was going to be here", Natalia replied, "She isn't out there?"
"No mama"
Natalia was getting worried, "She said she would be here. I need her here Rafe"
"I understand mama…Do you want me to call and see where she is?"
"I don't know. Do you think that Olivia won't let her come?"
"I don't think that is true mama"
There was a knock on the door
"Maybe that is her", Rafe replied as he opened the door, "What are you doing here?"
"I came to see if your mother was ready?"
"You aren't suppose to be here Frank"
"I don't believe in those old superstitions"
"But my mama does and that what matters"
Frank rolled his eyes and Rafe almost wanted to sock the older man. But he knew that he could not do that in church
"I need to see your mother"
"She is not ready to see you yet Frank"
Frank sighed, "Fine"
Rafe watched as the police chief left, "What an idiot"
