“How are we sleeping?” Mayoko asked, clutching her purple sleeping bag.“The sleeping bags are right in front of you—wherever you want,” Paul said. “I suggest staying around the fire.”“That’s it?” Jenny asked. “No blankets, pillows, or anything?”“Sorry, Babe,” I laughed. “Sleeping under the open sky doesn’t come with blankets.”“I see,” she said, pulling two large backpacks from the girls’ car.“I’ve been preparing since last year,” she said, pulling an air mattress from one of them.“Hey, hey, princess,” Paul said. “This isn’t just any night—it’s a bet.”“He’s right,” Brian stepped in. “We won the night, and we don’t think the mattress counts.”“Messyhair?” Jenny purred, snuggling up to me. “You

Brian and I woke up before everyone else in the early morning. He quietly started documenting the wake-up process. Thanks to our swim training, we were used to waking up early, so all the guys were up before the girls.Daryl silently gestured to Brian to film the selection of creatures next to Diane, and Brian did. There was a spider, a bug, a worm—whatever my friend had managed to find in the dark. I also showed the camera the animals and then moved a harmless forest snake from near the fire to behind Jenny’s back, placing a brick between them.Susy was the first of the girls to wake up. She had slept comfortably on her back near the fire, next to Paul. She grinned when she saw the spider sleeping on her chest and gently placed it on the ground. The spider scurried away, and Susy sat up curiously. Brian and I signaled for her to stay quiet, and she nodded, grabbing a sweater from the tent.When Jenny started stirring, I gestured to Brian, who turned

After arriving, as we did every year, we returned the rental cars, and Brian drove Jenny home before dropping me off. I got home comfortably in time for dinner, and Brad and Amber ate with us.“How was it?” Amber asked during dinner. “Did you get any new clothes?”“Yeah, she bought me a few things,” I said.“We saw your cute little shirt,” Mom teased, and Dad chuckled quietly.“In return, she got a snake in her hands,” I grinned, showing everyone the picture and a short video of her morning reaction.“That wasn’t very nice,” Mom remarked.“I’ve realized that,” I admitted. “She was a little mad about it.”“You should be helping her with that, not making fun of it,” Dad said seriously. I nodded.“I’ll put the picture up in the shop,” Amber said, effectively ending my brief scolding.&ldq

That evening, I walked her home and then hurried back to talk to Dad about my plan.“I don’t even care if you place a bet at Tony’s,” I said after explaining what I wanted. “But please talk to Dr. Cox. I don’t want to jump into something that isn’t feasible.”“Son,” Dad sighed, “I’ll talk to Adam, but are you sure this is what she wants?”“I’m sure about the beach, not the guest count,” I said. “Right now, the location is the priority.”“Well, if we go with this, your mother will have a ton of work ahead of her,” he smiled. “But I’ll ask around. I assume I shouldn’t tell her, right?”“No. Handle it like the ring,” I requested. “Just you and Dr. Cox.”“Son,” he asked cautiously, “if Adam approves, will you propose this year?”I laughed.&ld

The hospital reception was directly across from the entrance. Light green walls and white tiled floors greeted me. At the green nurse’s station sat an older woman in a white coat with green trim, wearing glasses.“Good afternoon,” I greeted. The woman looked up from behind her files. “Where can I find Jane Shepherd?”“She requested the day off weeks ago,” she said. “She’s not in today.”“Thank you,” I said, hiding my surprise. Jenny hadn’t mentioned anything when we talked yesterday. I didn’t like this at all.I drove home—our house was on the way first—but I didn’t see her car, so I kept going and pulled into Uncle Steve’s driveway. The red car wasn’t parked in its usual spot, but I knocked anyway.“Hi,” Mrs. Julie greeted me cheerfully. “Come in. What did the old man forget this time?” she asked playfully as sh

I parked nearby, sent her a message, and used my key to enter the shop. Luckily, the alarm wasn’t set, so Jenny wouldn’t hear me.Voices from our room caught my attention.“It says,” she laughed, “‘Thanks for lunch, Babe. I love you.’“ She read my message aloud.I didn’t enter—I just listened quietly.“You know, Daddy,” Jenny continued, “you’d really like him. He says he wants to propose, and for the past few months, I actually believe him.”Warmth spread through me at her words.“Since we moved in together, I’ve been really happy, and I think he is too. I never imagined my husband would be a veterinarian—but then again, neither did anyone else.” She laughed, and I sat down on the doorstep, listening.“I know, I know,” she went on. “You always said only a trained eye sees true value. But that the most popular guy in school would turn out to be such an expert?” She laughed again and spent minutes happily gushing about me—mentioning thi

Photos from her childhood played in a slideshow. She paused it and started telling me about each picture.Mr. Shepherd was a tall, well-built man with light blonde hair, much like Daniel. He had striking eyes—ones that were hard to resist—and Jenny and Mickey had inherited them.I saw my girlfriend as a little girl, back when Mrs. Julie was pregnant with Mickey. Jenny told me where each picture was taken, who was in it, and the story behind it.“Your mom played tennis?” I asked, pointing to a picture where Mrs. Julie was teaching Daniel. Based on my guess, Jenny must have been a baby at the time.“Yeah,” she said. “And so did Dad. They taught everyone. Mom still plays actively, but now only Mickey does.”“What’s this?” I asked, pointing to the next picture—Daniel as a teenager holding some kind of equipment. It wasn’t a close-up, so I couldn’t tell what it was, and

“Jay!” Jenny called down. “Come up and see it too!”I ran up the stairs. Mickey had built some kind of castle out of paper—it was holding up surprisingly well.“Nice work, Mickey,” Jenny said, ruffling his hair.“Thanks for taking my advice,” I said to her gently.“Sometimes you might be right,” she smiled, and I wrapped my arms around her and kissed her.“Mom, Dany!” Mickey suddenly bolted down the stairs. “Janie and Jay are making out!”Everyone downstairs burst into laughter. We didn’t rush back down right away.“Johnny,” Uncle Steve said, “I haven’t mentioned it before, but you’re always welcome to spend the night here.”“Grandpa,” Jenny said, “there’s no need, but thank you.” I was surprised she didn’t get flustered.“Mickey’s outburst doe

The next morning, we left for our week-long vacation. The drive wasn’t long, and after unpacking, we went out for lunch.“Babe,” I asked as we ate.“Go ahead,” she laughed, seeing right through me.“Before we got Amber’s place, where did you spend your dad’s birthday?”“At Iris’s,” she said simply. “She lent me her apartment for the day and went out.”“Did she know what you were doing?” I asked, surprised.“Only you know, Messyhair,” she smiled. “She just knew I wanted to be alone that day and offered her place.”“And the summer before school?” I asked. “When you were already living at Uncle Steve’s?”“You’re getting better at details, Messyhair,” she smiled. “I rented a room.”“Seriously?” I asked. “You spent money on that?&r

She stepped out from the crowd, picked a blue balloon, and aimed for the bottom of the canvas. Her throw lacked force—she barely hit the target. But she got applause too.“What kind of paint is in these?” Jenny asked. “If I missed, how much of a mess would I have made?”“It’s a mix—not too thick, not too watery. If it gets on your skin, it’ll fade over time,” the guy explained. “If it started raining now, your artwork would probably disappear since it hasn’t dried yet.”The conversation didn’t hold much interest for the crowd, and they slowly wandered off.“I see, thanks,” my girlfriend said. “Could I get a pink and a black one?”“Of course,” the guy smiled.Jenny adjusted her grip on the two balloons, preparing to throw again. She turned toward me, but before I could react, the pink liquid splattered across my chest, dripp
