'Ian: Thats great see you there! :)'

           Mary sank to the floor and sat there in silence. What had she just done? She punched the wall closest to her and her fist went through the wall. She pulled out her hand and collapsed on her bed. She felt extreme pain in her hand , she was sure that it was bleeding. But she didn't care. She suddenly burst into tears. Her life was so complicated. She laid there crying for an entire day.

          There were a mere 3 days until the wedding , and Mary was still laying on her bed. She sat there staring at her ceiling. Mary couldn't back down now , she had already agreed to go. Mary got up and went to the bathroom. When she was done she looked in the mirror. Her hair was a mess , she had bags under her eyes , her eyes were red from crying , and her eyes were empty and sad. She nearly burst into tears at her appearance. She looked away from the mirror and fell to the tile floor.

        All she felt was an overwhelming amount of sadness. She sat there and cried. She was brought back to her senses by the sound of her door bell. She wiped off her eyes and stood up. She walked out of the bathroom and to her front door. She stopped about a  foot away from the door and took a deep breath. She opened the door and was greeted with a tight hug. "Hi Mary!" Rebecca said , still hugging Mary tightly. Mary easily broke the Mexican girls grip and got a good look of her. Mary and all her friends hadn't seen each other since Ian had announced his plans to get married to his fiance.

       Rebecca had gotten a tiny bit taller ,and  her black hair was a little longer , but she was still pretty small and petite. Next to Rebecca was Ij'Mahri and Rosalyn. Ij'Mahri's dreads had gotten a bit longer , but that's pretty much all that changed. Rosalynn had yet again dyed her short hair another color. This time it was purple again. "Hey guys , what're you doing here?" Mary asked the three girls outside her door. "We came to visit you , can we come in?" Rebecca said , smiling. "Uh , sure. Come on in." Mary said , opening the door so they could come in.

       "So , what did you want to do here?" Mary asked her friends. "Well we wanted to go shopping to buy dresses to wear to Ian's wedding , and we wanted to see if you wanted to come too." Rebecca said , sitting on Mary's couch. "I've said a million times that i refuse to wear a dress!" Ij'Mahri yelled at Rebecca. "Its a formal event , so you're wearing a dress." Rebecca said back , glaring at Ijmahri. "Rosalynn , tell Rebecca that you don't have to wear dresses to weddings!" Ij'Mahri said turning to Rosalynn. Rosalynn looked up from the book she was reading and smirked. 

        "Rebecca is right Ij'Mahri , you have to wear dresses to formal events." Rosalynn said with a smirk. "Do you exist just to ruin my life?"IjMahri said frowning. "Exactly!" Rosalynn said with a laugh.Mary looked at her friends. They were always so happy. Mary smiled , and then she started to chuckle. She remembered old times , when she was happy with them. She missed that.  And at that moment , her heart was lifted out of her depression. She didn't know how long this temporary high was going to last but for her sake , she hoped it never ended
