Chapter 29

Carson's chest felt heavy when he woke up. Even though Alice had been gone for a week, it seemed like a long time. He looked at the ceiling because he didn't want to get up and act like everything was fine again.

"Carson! What are you doing?" The sound of his mom's words came from the doorway opposite. "We have a busy day ahead!"

Carson made a sound. No problem. Things for the wedding again. He shook himself out of bed and called back, "I'm up, Mom!"

Trying to get dressed, he looked at himself in the mirror. His eyes looked tired because they were dark. He whispered to himself, "Pull yourself together." "You have a job to do."

It was already very busy downstairs in the house. Mrs. MacPherson, Carson's mom, was in the living room with a wedding planner and lots of mags and fabric pieces all around them.

Mrs MacPherson was glad to see Carson and said, "Oh, good, you're here." "We want to know what you think about the color scheme." Margaret likes pink, but I believe blue is more classy.
