My Novel Translation Test

I translated first page of my novel for test.
Keep in mind that my engrish sucks and i am just a newbie in the novel world, it might kill some of your brain cells like it did with mine.
I don't take any responsibility of the damage this might do.

So you have been warned.

Spoiler below!

Day Sanctified



I am walking towards the wedding altar and bride holds my right hand.
The bride has long thick veil on her face so i can't recognise the person
under it.
Because everything is so random and nothing makes any sense, i assume
this must be the tricks of my mind, again.
I wonder why i never have real nightmares? Something where i
wade in blood and naked chainsaw massacre guy chases after me like usually? Is it this 'cause i am not afraid of that kind of stuff anymore?
Why are horrible and boring things like weddings turning into nightmares?
I arrive to altar, the priest preaches his nonsense and it is about time
to lift the veil and look to the unknown.
Another surprise! It wasn't what i expected it to be, this dream turns worse step by step.
The bride is ugly as hell, and looks familiar... Oh wait a minute...
- ”Jone, what the hell are you doing in my dream?”
- ”What people usually do in others dreams?”
- ”Make it more horrible?”
- ”Hey don't ask me, i am product of your twisted mind”.
At the same moment, from the distance echoes and volumes up another familiar voice:
Sakari!! Hey Sakari, wake up!! I am gonna be late!!
From that, i wake up.
I find myself lying inside the bath filled with empty bottles, and for my own pleasure i have
broken some of them on the floor too, great.
I have a hung-over and i slowly begin to rub my face and eyes, while Daichi keeps moaning and repeating the same tape.
Suddenly i hear a thump on my window.
That kid started throwing snowballs, like his annoying screaming wasn't enough.
I wake up from the bath having another surprise, Oh shit....
I have a skirt on. And looks like i am almost naked too. Only panties on, female panties.
Looks like i have completely lost my yesterday, but assuming from the clothes i had some
female company. Or... i don't know, could be worse, but because i woke up this time from my own apartment, i assume everything went better this time.
I start my journey to yell Daichi to stop his snow rampage, but suddenly snowball cuts it and flies right trough my window breaking it and ending up to my forehead.
It was painful, yet refreshing way to start a day.
I rushed to window and yelled:
- "Thanks for that, i wasn't even intending to open it."
- "I am sorry for that, really, but i don't have time for useless conversations."
- "Useless? You broke my darn window."
- "Yes, and i apologized for that."
- "Your yelling was enough to ride me nuts, there was no need to broke my window."
- "Okay, okay, i get it, let's just cut to the point: the buss won't move today and might not move for awhile."
- "Let me guess, a strike."
- "Yes, News says it was caused by incident in Sector 3 East Humas."
- "Must be Renacis doings, now when even border patrol are in strike, nothing is safe there."
