"Come right this way, please" Hakkaih, the receptionist of Roxi's store says as she leads both Ciara and I to where our wedding dresses were kept.

Few weeks after I'd proposed to Ciara, Roxi had called us to come in for our wedding dress fitting.

So, here we were in Roxi's shop.

"Please sit" Hakkaih says, gesturing us down onto a couch as soon as we got to the dressing room.

Doing as she'd said, Ciara grabs onto my hands. "I'm nervous"

"Honestly, me too"

"Who would like to test out their dresses first?" Hakkiah asks.

"I would" Ciara confirms.

"Then, please come with me"

Slowly, Ciara let go off my hand as she follows Hakkaih into the dressing room. Glancing around, I see a magazine right across from me.

Picking it up, I get myself preoccupied with the various designs in it as I waited for Ciara to step out of the dressing room.

My phone rang; it was dad. Ever since that day we'd talked, dad tried his possible best to call me whenever he had the chance.

    KassaiMaxton had called and told me to meet him at Emmiel's bar. I'd contemplated coming up with an excuse to avoid meeting up with him but, Alena had told me to face it head on so that I would be able to quickly get over it. Strolling into the bar, I walked towards Emmiel by the counter. "Hey. Is Maxton here?""He's waiting for you in the VIP section upstairs""Thank you"Heading up the stairs, I played over the words I wanted to say to Maxton on repeat in my head but as soon as my gaze fell on Maxton, I forgot all I had to say. He was seated on a couch at the far end of the VIP section. I remained where I stood, putting some distance between us. "You came" He says. "Well, you called""I've been calling you since yesterday morning, Kass" Maxton says as a matter of fact. "You've clearly been avoiding me. Why?"Why?. "You know why, Maxton""I remember everything that happened that day" He claims. "I'm the one that kissed you so why are YOU the one avoiding me?""Because I know yo

    Alena"This one" Mom says, pulling out a pink dress from the clothe rack. Ciara and I had gone shopping the next day for a dress I'd wear to Miss Micheal's wedding. I'd told Mom that she didn't need to accompany me but she insisted. So, here we were in Miss Micheal's cloth store picking out a dress while Mom pushed baby Linden's stroller. Whisking the dress from her hands, I went into the dressing room to change into it. Mom had good taste. Stepping out from the dressing room, a short gasp escaped through Mom's lips. "You look like a princess"I blushed. "Thanks, Mom""Do you like this dress or do you want to try another?""I like this one""Then, let's get it"Stepping out from the dress, Mom asked for it to be placed in a bag as she made payment for it by the counter. As we exited Miss Micheal's store, Mom and I moved into the central park and sat down on a bench enjoying the scenery before us. "Thanks for insisting to come along, Mom" I say. "I didn't want to stress you as yo

    MaxtonIn the bar, I asked Emmiel to pur me another shot of beer. "Another"Emmiel was one of my closest friends I had outside my teammates. His father was owned this bar but as he was sick, Emmiel had been working in his place for the past 6 months now. "No, dude" Emmiel refused. "That's enough""Why?" I slurped. "I'm helping you boost your sales, aren't I?""Listen to me" Emmiel says. "I don't know what you're going through right now but you've had enough alcohol for one day"Letting out an exasperated sigh, adds. "Who the fuck gets drunk in the day time anyways?"I do. And that's because I was trying to forget my feelings for Alena. I hated the fact that she'd even gotten attacked by a victim and I wasn't there for her. Many more things were bound to happen one way or the other and I couldn't be there for her because she chose Asher instead and I hated that. "Fine, don't get me another drink" I splurged, rising up to my feet. "I'll just go drink at another bar""Hey, dude. Stop!

    Alena After Julia and I had reviewed Jameson's case, she'd agreed to defend Jameson but wasn't asking any promises on his sentence being sucesfully reduced. "Thank you" I say, glancing around the dining table for what dish to pack for Asher. I selected any random dish and put it in a bag. "I'll be heading to my office here in Australia to work on Jameson's case" Julia says, rising up to her feet. I was surprised to hear that she was leaving so soon. "You're leaving?""Don't get me wrong honey, I would love to stay" Julia explains. "But, I feel this is all to sudden for you to take in. I don't want to use this case to force my way into your life"Patting my head, she says. "Let's do this again sometime when you're ready to and when it's not work related, okay?"I nod in understanding. "Okay. Let me know when you get to your office""Will do"As I walked Julia out the front lawn, I spot Miss Micheal and Fredinard next door. They were just about to enter into their car. "Miss Michea

    AsherAfter Alena and I parted ways, I turned into my house as well.The plan was to hit the sack while waiting for Alena and her mother to be done with their conversation but the plan was utterly ruined as soon as I walked in and saw Mom seated on the couch.Without thinking twice, I hid my wounded hand behind my back. "Mom, you didn't tell me you were coming. What a surprise!"Mom springs up from the couch, approaching me with a wide smile plastered across her face. "That's because I wanted to surprise you" She responds. "I went through the fridge and found it empty. What on earth have you been eating, Asher?""I haven't had time for grocery shopping yet""Thank goodness I came then" Mom say, pointing over to a bag ontop the kitchen counter. "I brought you some cooked food. They're your favourite"I throw myself at Mom, hugging her ever so tightly. "Thank you"Mom refrains from my embrace as she pulls me down to sit on the couch. "So, how has things at the hospital been?. Is it fun

    Alena"Asher..""You don't need to answer me right away" He says, cutting me short. "You can as much time as you want to think it through"But was there really anything to think about?. My entire life was here. My family, my work, my friends. I wasn't sure I could leave that all behind. "Alot of things still needs to be tended to" I respond. "My relationship with Julia just started healing, there's Jameson's case. I can't leave just yet"Asher let out a short sigh. "I figured you'd say that but thought I'd ask regardless. The offer is always opened incase you change your mind""I'll keep that in mind" Asher and I walked back home together and there separated. Strolling inside my house, I spot Julia spreading out some dishes on the table. It looked like a meal made for twenty people. "Are we expecting someone over?"Julia chuckled. "I didn't know what you liked so I made a lot" she passed, looking behind me. "Where's Asher?""He went home""That's a shame" she admits. "I was hoping
