[Two Weeks Later]
<Wedding Day>

It's 5pm, Dina wanted an evening event, just as the sun set. Invited guests and family members from both sides have arrived at the wedding and have settled inside the ceremony venue.

"You're sure bro?" That's Zodiac's best man, his older brother, Lantern. "Zod?" He lightly taps him on the shoulder as he seems to be in deep thought.

He comes out of it and stands from his seat, walking to stand by the window. "Yea, I got this." He exhales, looking out the window. "Look Zod, I for one know marriage life is no joke but marriage life with Dina, I don't know man."

Lantern also stands, grabbing Zodiac's suit blazer and walking to him. "I don't understand what mom and dad see in that girl, she's so annoying, no offense bro." Zodiac shakes his head.

"Non taken man, I know her better." Lantern smiles then helps Zodiac wear his blazer.

"But honestly though man, are you sure about this?" Zodiac turns his gaze to Lantern, places his hands on his shoulders and smiles. "I've never been more sure of anything in my life."

Skeptically, with a small smile, Lantern nods. "Okay then, shall we?" Zodiac nods. "There's no turning back now." They both walk to the mirror, fix their suits, share a hug then walk out.

"Are you sure it looks beautiful mom?" Dina asks her mother, who's in another room with her and Janetta Coles.

"Of course my love, you look your best, like a princess." Her mother compliments her, standing next to her on the mirror.

Dina smiles then looks at Janetta. "Your mother is right sweetheart, you look gorgeous." Janetta places her hand on Dina's shoulder. "My son is so lucky."

Dina grins then slightly turns to give Janetta a light hug. "Everyone must be here already, it's almost 6pm, the ceremony should start." Janetta says, checking her watch.













"Wait mother-in-law, can't I see Zoddy first?" Her mother turns Dina to face her.

"No, no dear, that's bad luck. I know you can't wait to see your love but, he shouldn't see you in your wedding dress before the ceremony." Dina frowns, turning to Janetta.

"It's tradition Dina, listen to your mother. You'll see him soon, okay?" Dina smiles then turns back to the mirror.

"Okay, can I be left alone now, I need to do some touch ups." Dina's mother and Janetta look at each other then nod.

"Okay my lovely daughter, but come soon, alright?" Dina smile and waves they walk out, leaving her alone.
