    I sat down looking at the bouquet in my hand.White roses. I loved white roses. My favorite flowers actually. A smile adorned my face looking at the beautiful bunch of flowers. I looked up to see my reflection in the mirror. My hair was neatly wrapped in a bun. White. I stood up and looked at myself one last time. It was a princess gown. Much more beautiful than my first dress.My hand instinctively went on my three-month-old baby bump that was hidden in the layers of the dress.I was extremely excited to meet our little baby. Just six more months.“Court, ready?” I heard Lana’s voice from behind. I pushed the nervousness I was feeling away and smiled while nodding at her.She walked closer to me and looked at me, “you look gorgeous,” she said and smiled. “Now shall we?” She said, gesturing towards the door.
