Sandy's side of the story

They reached the bridal boutique.

                “Where’s the bride?” the boutique owner asked both of them.

               “She won’t be fitting the wedding gown because her family believed that wearing the gown before the wedding day is bad luck” she explained.

                “Being superstitious huh?” the woman chuckled.

                “So my best friend here will be fitting the gown in her place. They’re the same size” Julian said as he put his right arm over her shoulder.

                “Yeah it’s a good thing you got a best friend like her who’s willing to be a body double” she joked as they followed her to the fitting room.

Darlene’s side of the story

She looked herself in the mirror. All of this is real and she’ll be a married woman in a few days. She’s sure that Jared Kim would be a nice husband to her. He’s gentleman, kind, and responsible. Her father always wanted him to be his son-in-law. On the contrary, she couldn’t say that she’s happy. That person gave her his blessings when she told him about the wedding. He’s her senior back in college. They spent a lot of time together until she developed a special feelings towards him. She told him that she likes him but didn’t get any response in return.

                “Darlene, this is your path now…” she told herself but tears fall down from her eyes.

Jared's side of the story

After wearing his tuxedo, he decided to step out and look for Eun Hye on the next room.

                “He’s the most handsome guy I’ve seen!”

                “He’s like a model from the magazine!”

                “I really envy his bride. I’d give anything to marry a guy like that!”he heard those girls talking in a voice like they’re day dreaming.

Anyway, he ignored all the stares he’s getting from the lady assistants and went to the next room. He waited until the assistants open the curtains. The woman turned around slowly. Everything seems to be like in a slow motion. She’s not Darlene but that’s not what surprises him. The woman in the wedding dress is very lovely and in that moment he admitted to himself that she’s the most beautiful woman he ever laid his eyes on. Then he suddenly saw himself waiting for her in the altar. Aidan’s words echoed in his ears.

“What if, in a time and place that you least expect, you encounter the girl who’ll catch your attention? The girl who will make you lovesick and will awake your cold heart?”

The woman looked to his direction and their eyes met. She smiled to him.

              “What do you think?” she said in a soft voice.

Jared though he’s going to have a heart attack because his heart is beating in an unfamiliar way.

               “Oh God!”Jared whispered to himself.
