Trees whispered as if sharing secrets, and the scent of fresh flowers lingered in the air. The sun wasn't harsh, it bathed everything in a golden hue that made the day feel magical.Jay looked around the space he and Riele had chosen weeks ago for the small reunion. A low table was set with cupcakes, juice, and snacks. Blankets and cushions were scattered for everyone to relax. Ella, their daughter, now a spirited three-year-old with her mother's eyes and her father’s dimples, giggled as she tried to help her dad arrange cups."Careful, baby," Jay chuckled, lifting her gently into his arms. "You're supposed to be supervising, not sabotaging."Ella grinned and clung to his neck. "But I'm the boss!" she declared.Jay laughed. “Yes, ma’am. Boss it is.”A car door slammed gently in the distance. Riele turned toward the sound, squinting. "They’re here!" she calle
The gentle breeze teased Riele’s curls as she stepped out of the car, her fingers still intertwined with Jay’s. The soft scent of saltwater floated in the air, and before them stood the breathtaking beachfront villa Jay had chosen—a quiet, private slice of paradise. The sun dipped low, casting golden hues over the calm waves. Riele turned to Jay, eyes wide with wonder."This place is beautiful," she whispered, her voice filled with awe.Jay smiled, brushing his thumb across the back of her hand. “Not as beautiful as you. But it’s close.”She blushed, laughing gently. “You always know the right thing to say.”They walked up the wooden path that led to the villa, their bags carried by resort staff who greeted them respectfully before disappearing. As the front doors opened, Riele gasped. The suite was spacious and elegant, draped in soft whites and sandy neutrals. Floor-to-ceiling windows showcased a view of the endless ocean, and the sound of crashing waves drifted in like a lullaby.Ja
The morning sky stretched wide and soft, painted with streaks of gold and delicate clouds. It was the kind of morning that whispered promises—of joy, of love, of forever. Inside Charlotte’s house, laughter filled the air like music. The scent of flowers and faint notes of vanilla-scented candles danced in the corners of the bridal room.Riele sat in front of the mirror, dressed in a white silk robe, her eyes still. Her reflection didn’t quite feel like her—it looked too graceful, too still, like someone preparing to step into a life she had only dreamed of. Charlotte stood behind her, brushing her long dark hair gently.“You’re about to be someone’s wife, Rie,” Charlotte whispered, her voice tender.“I know,” Riele murmured, trying to keep her hands from trembling in her lap.Charlotte gave her a warm smile through the mirror. “You're beautiful. I almost don’t want to let him have you.”Riele chuckled softly, blinking back the heat building in her eyes. “Don’t make me cry, not yet. We
Jay stood in front of his mirror, adjusting the collar of his shirt when his phone rang. He picked it up immediately, seeing the name that made his heart skip—Mom.“Hello, Mom!” he answered, already smiling.Her voice came through warm and eager. “Jay, I’ve just landed. I’m at the airport now.”His grin widened. “You’re here already? That’s amazing! Give me a second—I’ll call Riele and we’ll be on our way.”“Good. And make sure she’s dressed nicely. Today is a very special day,” she added with a teasing tone before ending the call.Without hesitation, Jay dialed Riele’s number.“Hey, love,” Riele said, her voice still soft with sleep. “What’s up?”“She’s here,” Jay said excitedly. “My mom just landed. Can you get ready quickly? I want us to go together.”“Oh—already?” Riele asked, suddenly alert. “Okay, okay, give me like twenty minutes. Should I wear something formal?”Jay chuckled. “Just be yourself. You’re perfect the way you are.”By the time Jay pulled up in front of her house, Ri
