I thought he would get them all easily. To my surprise, he got the very first one wrong. “What shoe size does the bride wear?” Without hesitation, he answered, “Size 6.” “What’s the bride’s favorite color?” “Blue.” Everyone exchanged glances, and the atmosphere grew awkward.

I could show you what you’ve been missing.” She grabbed a napkin and scribbled her number on it. “Text me. We’ll have a girls’ night out.”

the man in his mid-thirties exclaimed. My ears are getting sore with all this noise and a couple fighting with some kind of affair. Cheating. Perhaps it's human nature to find something new when they got bored with what they have for a long time. Like how we declutter our closet to get rid of the things we find no interest in already. They say if somebody asked for a second chance then spare them, oh please I don't believe in that crap. As I had said earlier, human nature is human nature! "Oh, kid grow up!
