Leo Coltrane. All **** had broken loose at first Jamaica Ministries with tea and not showing up for the wedding as Arens manager, it was my job to do damage control, which is part of the reason why I shuttled everyone from the groom's side of the wedding party into the bishop's office to regroup. I wanted Aaron as far away from all the gossips, cameras and presses. I could get him. I knew it would only be a matter of time before the entire borough of Queens new about I will run away Bride. That was also sure that the local news would be on the story as well. I could already hear the anchors of the six oclock local news. In a sad story, First Jamaica Ministries Award winning singer songwriter and choir director Aaron Mackey was left at the altar by his bride this afternoon. I could only pray that the story didn't get picked up by the national media, but with Erin's rising stardom on the gospel circuit, I didn't have much faith in my prayers being answered. Representatives from Ebony and Essence magazine were already in attendance, so I figured it was just a matter of time before we'd get a call from TMZ. Still, the bishop always said, Be thankful for what you have. So at the moment I was given thanks for the fact that we were in the safe confines of his office. It was time for me to stop acting like a manager and more like a best friend. My poor body looked like he was about to break down and cry. He was sitting in a chair in the far corner of the room with his head, hung low and didn't bother to answer me. A few of his groomsmen stood by helplessly. Did you two have a fight? No, Everything was great. I felt we were the happiest people on the face of the Earth. This whole thing doesn't make any sense. Bishop Erin shook his head rapidly, as if it might wake him up from this nightmare. No, it doesn't, son Bishop reassured him. It doesn't make any sense at all. I never much like that. Half our anyway, Erin's mother blurted out in her characteristic fashion, had known Mrs Mackie for years. She was a sweet old woman, except when it came to her son, she'd go gangster in a minute. If she thought someone was doing him wrong. If you crossed him, you crossed her. No matter what the circumstances. If you ask me, you were too good for her. Trifling behind. I'm sure you're better off without her. No, Mom, Not Aaron. Protested. I'm a much better man with her than without her. I just don't know what happened. I thought we were happy.
