It was 5 am and molly was in Bath she couldn't sleep. The wedding was in two weeks. Charles had booked a stunning stately home for the day, molly had her dress and all the invitations had been sent out and they had all the replies back.
However molly was feeling uneasy about it all. Although she loved Charles she still felt that she was no good for him. She was from a dead end counsel estate in east London with few qualifications to her name and until quite recently had been mouthy and quite happy to get in to a fight with anyone for no reason what so ever. And he, well he was a well-dressed privately educated commissioned officer from a so called better class town and family.
Charles was still asleep in the bed next to her she slowly edged out as not to wake him and got dressed in the bathroom. She left a note on the pillow next to him and crept out of the house. Big fat tears rolling down her cheeks as she did.
LONDON 3PM
"MOLLY where the HELL are you?, I have been worried sick. You run off in the dead of night. WHAT the FUCK were you thinking?"
It was pouring with rain and molly was in town on the phone to Charles. His voice sounded closer not like he was in Bath. Molly span round and saw Charles drenched in front of her. She looked at him but couldn't look at him directly in his eyes.
"And another thing… why did you leave this behind?" He held out the engagement ring that she had left on the pillow earlier that morning
"I can't do it. I can't marry you"
"Why?"
"you are too good for me. I have seen the way that people look at me when we are out together. They think I am a gold digger in bath or some sort of escort up hear. I can't do it."
"molly I don't care what people think and you shouldn't ether. I LOVE you for YOU. I couldn't care less where you come from or who your family are. They make you, you."
"really" molly replied with big tears rolling down her face
Charles placed his hand on her cheek and wiped the tears away with his thumb stroking her face.
"really" he said and placed the ring back on her finger.
"I love you molly…james." He said as he kissed her.
