No speeches, special mentions or any form of acknowledgement whatsoever.Adrienne insisted on taking care of the venue, the decorations, the catering and the program.

But she felt tired of doing everything that everybody around her expected of her. She lived with a stepmother who never saw anything good in what she did, a father who didn’t know how to stand up for her, and now she had a mother who mapped out her future without even telling her.

She could almost not contain the happiness inside her, but somehow a part of her felt terrified about facing their parents, her mother, most especially. Their parents couldn’t be happier about this, but she also knew that they must have been planning their wedding long before she and Justin had met. And somehow, a part of her felt guilty about taking that dream away from them. She felt Justin tilt her chin up. “Are you okay, honey?” he asked gently. She smiled and nodded. “Nervous, though.” He smiled at her reassuringly. “They’re gonna be fine.
