Alex, who had also emerged, added, "If you don't mind, please leave. You're dirtying our doorstep."The tension in the air was palpable, and if looks could kill, all three of them would have killed Julie with their firm stare." leave now! Julie," I declared firmly."No, I won't !" Julie protested."What do you mean you won't ?" I asked, puzzled by her defiance.Cassandra appeared in the doorway, her hair wrapped in a towel. "What's going on?" she asked, curious."I don't want to upset her," I whispered to Alex and Kenny, who both nodded in agreement. Before Julie could say anything, Alex covered her mouth with his hand, pushed her out of the room, and followed her outside."Nothing's going on," Kenny assured Cassandra , redirecting her attention.I glanced over my shoulder and followed Alex outside. He had Julie in his grasp, and she was struggling to get free. When I lifted her legs, Alex and I carried her to her car.The car door was unlocked, and the keys were inside. Julie beca

"I want to be a grandma soon, while people can still say I look too young for it."Cassandra interjected, flashing a smile at me, "Why not get married next month, Jasper?"I was taken aback. I had been procrastinating in case Cassandra changed her mind. I wanted her to have the freedom to do so."Are you sure?" I asked."Yes," she replied.That settled it. We would be getting married exactly a month from now. Alex and Kenny cheered loudly until my mother quieted them down.As we gathered around the table, Mom pulled out a notebook and a pen and began writing a to-do list. Our conversation revolved around the wedding venue when suddenly the doorbell interrupted us. I rushed to answer it, only to find my old friend David standing there."Hey! Perfect timing!" I exclaimed."You've forgotten all about me ever since you got engaged," David replied."Sorry, man, it's been a crazy time," I said apologetically."Sure, sure," he responded as he entered the house. "So what's going on? I hear w

"You seem to be doing better," I observed."Yes, I feel much better," she replied."That's great. I do have something on my mind though, and I need your help."Her smile faded and she looked at me with apprehension. "What is it?""I need to decide who should be my best man.""I apologize, but I can't provide any assistance on this matter. The decision is entirely up to you," Cassandra said.I let out a frustrated sigh. "Come on, please help me out!""I'm sorry, Jasper. I can't pick sides because I have personal relationships with both David and Alex and Kenny. It wouldn't be fair," Cassandra responded."Okay, so what do I do then? Just flip a coin?" I asked.Cassandra chuckled. "Well, there are only two sides to a coin, Jasper."I banged my hand against my forehead in frustration. "Getting married is so difficult! I feel sorry for anyone who got married before me, and I'll warn any unmarried guys not to tie the knot!"Cassandra comforted me with a kiss on my forehead before excusing h

Cassandra stepped down from the car, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment, and we drove off, giggling like teenagers. "Who was that guy?" I asked curiously."Brian," she replied dismissively. "My insensitive ex-boyfriend.""He seemed pretty bitter about losing you, though," I remarked."He doesn't have a chance," she said confidently. "I've found a much better man, and he'll never find anyone better than me.""Very true," I said, grinning from ear to ear.Upon arriving home, Cassandra immediately set to work cleaning the spare room in preparation for any unexpected visitors. She had plans to meet with Jane to discuss their ideas for designing the bridesmaids' dresses, which brought her great joy. Meanwhile, I changed into my night clothes, feeling wryly amused by her excitement as I still had yet to decide on a best man for the wedding.As we settled into bed, Cassandra crept close to me, laying her head on my shoulder and draping an arm across my chest. I smiled and kissed her foreh

When I arrived home, Jane had already left, and Cassandra welcomed me with a smile. "What's wrong? You look upset," she asked. I sat down, and she fetched me a glass of water. I told her about the visits from the three guys, and she burst out laughing. "Don't take it so seriously!" she said."But it's frustrating," I replied."I know, but Kenny is always like that. So, what did you do today?" I asked with a grin.Jane and I hadn't yet finalized the color of the bridesmaids' dresses. I could feel the stress building up inside me as I thought about all the things that still needed to be done. When I mentioned this to her, she tried to cheer me up by telling me she will help come up with a perfect solution.Her words surprised me, but I listened carefully as she explained her idea. After hearing her out, I felt a sense of relief and gratitude towards her. "I don't know what I would do without you!" I exclaimed with a smile.Cassandra responded with a chuckle, "Well, it's good that you

Our personalities were opposites - I was ying, and he was yang. But together, we complemented each other perfectly, and that was all that mattered. Jasper , my current partner, was the complete antithesis of the player I had initially encountered at the park. He was kind, considerate, and utterly devoted.Interrupting my thoughts, Kenny jolted me back to reality, "What are you smiling about?" I blushed and looked up, "Nothing."Jane chimed in, "Let me guess, have you guys gotten to third base?""Jane! No, we haven't," I replied."Seriously?" Kenny asked incredulously."Yes," I confirmed."Why not?" he pressed."I wanted to wait," I explained."Ha! You were born in the wrong century, Sandy. You should've been born in Victorian times!" Kenny teased."Very funny, Kenny," I replied dryly, giving Jane a disapproving look.Eventually, we arrived at a jeweler's shop, and Jane volunteered to stay in the car while Kenny and I went inside. As soon as we entered, the sales team swarmed around us

Jasper 's cousins entered the room hand in hand as the door swung open. "Cassandra !" they exclaimed in unison. I greeted them with a smile and hugged them, expressing gratitude for choosing them. "No problem!" I replied, but Jane shot me a quizzical look. Although the girls were pleasant, their overwhelming enthusiasm reminded me of Judie Austin's character in The wedding Night. They raved about the wedding and excitedly screamed upon seeing their dresses. As the seamstress emerged to take their measurements, they fidgeted and could barely stand still.After the fitting, the cousins bid us farewell and shouted their goodbyes. "Do me a favor," Jane pleaded with a chuckle. "Please don't schedule their dress trial at the same time as mine." I laughed and chided her for being unkind."Okay, guys," Declan interrupted. "Leave and come back in an hour or so while I figure out what to do with Cassandra 's gown.""Sure, call me when you're ready," said Kenny as we parted ways.Stepping ou

We drove for about twenty minutes before arriving at Fabien's shop. As we entered, a kind-looking elderly man greeted us warmly, "Welcome!" he exclaimed while smiling at me. His smile was so contagious, I couldn't help but beam back at him.We spent the next hour being measured and fitted for the boys' new suits. As the tailor was taking Alex's measurements, he accidentally cupped Alex. We all burst into laughter, causing tears to stream down our faces, much to Alex's annoyance.Alex's face turned red as he exclaimed, "Everyone, be quiet!" However, Jasper was still giggling and managed to say, "But it was hilarious." Alex replied, "Maybe for you, but not for me!" Meanwhile, Kenny and I were trying to regain our composure, laughing uncontrollably. I held onto my stomach and tried to catch my breath, while Alex glared at me. Jasper had chosen a classic black suit and gave Fabien specific instructions on how he wanted it tailored. As we were leaving, Fabien turned to Jasper and remark
