The Jana and Luke wedding day. I took a shower and wear the suit  with the slack and the black oxford shoes, putting my hair to a messy but formal look. Then went downstairs to grabbing my car keys and off to Maya's house to took her a ride.

After twenty minutes, I just arrived on her house on time and there she's so gorgeous. She's wearing a cute red strapless dress with a black pump. If I was even right to describe that girl outfit stuffs.

"My little girl is so gorgeous." I said slightly smirking.

"I hate you!" She said. "I'm not a little girl, for your information, Mr. Sanders." Maya said smirking.

"What's wrong about that?" I said, "Am I not allowed to tell you that in the best way that I can?" I added smirking.

"Of course you can." Maya said smiling. I open the car for her and we're off to go.

Along the ride, we played some of our favorite music jam on the speakers. Maya, snapping her fingers as one of her favorite songs of Taylor Swift pop on the speakers.

"I like shiny things, but I'd marry you with paper rings
Uh huh, that's right
Darling, you're the one I want, and
I hate accidents except when we went from friends to this
Uh huh, that's right"
She snaps and sings so loud with the song.

"Darling, you're the one I want, and
Paper rings and picture frames and dirty dreams
Oh you're the one I want"

Maya sang like a rock star strumming her guitar in the air.

I just laugh and enjoy watching her. Then later that, we finally arrived at the wedding venue. Before we went out,

"Do you think, Arielle is here?" I said holding my breath.

"Hmmm… I don't know. We'll find out." Maya simply answered. "Let's go!" She said,

The venue is so beautiful and the ambiance is so relaxing. Then I saw people around smiling and talking, then to my surprise I got an eye contact with Arielle's mom. I don't know how to react, should I smile? Should I give a wave? Or should I go close and talk to them?

"Come!" Maya grab my hand and drag me to Arielle's family.

"Maya!" Andrea said smiling and gave her a hug. "Roran!" She said holding my hand and hug me after. Nothing's changed.

"Is that you, Roran?" Albert said smiling. "We miss you!" He added.

"Yea! Nothing's changed!" I said playfully.

I look around trying to see Arielle but I can't find her. I was about to ask her mom and dad but my tongue is tied back.

"By the way, congratulations in advance!" I said to Andrea and Albert.

"Thank you, Roran!" Albert said, tapping my shoulder.

As the wedding ceremony started I sit next to Maya on the fifth row of the seats and Jana is so beautiful, I thought of how beautiful Arielle would look like if she'd be wearing that white dress too.

"In the name of God, I, Luke Fosters, take you, Jana Alisha Hall, to be my wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, In sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, until we are parted by death. This is my solemn vow." After that Jana followed,

"In the name of God, I, Jana Alisha Hall, take you, Luke Fosters, to be my husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, In sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, until we are parted by death. This is my solemn vow."

The entire place was so filled with love and happiness to witness the exchanged of Jana and Luke's vows, the the next thing is to exchange the rings.

"Jana Alisha Hall, I give you this ring as a sign of my vow, and with all that I am, and all that I have, I honor you; In the name of the Father, And of the Son, And of the Holy Spirit." Luke said and fit the ring on Jana's finger,

"Luke Fosters, I give you this ring ss a sign of my vow, and with all that I am, and all that I have, I honor you; In the name of the Father, And of the Son, And of the Holy Spirit." Jana responded and put the ring on Luke's finger.

After the dismissal of blessings,

"I introduce to you, for the first time, Mr. Luke and Mrs. Jana Alisha Fosters." The Pastor stated and everyone cheered and they kissed.

After the wedding ceremony, I came and greeted Jana and Luke,

"Congratulations!" I said gladly.

"Oh my gosh!" Jana hugged me, "I thought you wouldn't come. Thank you so much, Roran!" She said almost tearing up.

"Oh no! Don't cry, you should be happy on your day." I said slightly smirking.

"Thank you for coming, Roran!" Luke said and hugged me.

"Well! I need to got your back always." I said and we did that hand shake and laugh. 

Luke and I, if I haven't mentioned we've been so similar in so many stuffs like, sports, cooking and business. That's why we had this bond that they did not know has to exist. We went to the reception and there the fun started, mingling around and talking with the family and it brought to my process the ceremony is almost over but I didn't even had a glimpse of Arielle. So o throw it away,

"Hmmm… Won't you mind if I ask, where's Arielle?" I said still acting nice and smiling at them.

They all look at me and the silence around their reaction that made me wonder.

"Roran, can we talk to you about it later." Andrea responded and smile.

"Okay!" I simply answered.

We go back to the conversation and enjoy the whole food in our plates.
