Days passed without any problems. Hayden and I were living a dream. In fact, from the moment he proposed to me, Grace and I started planning my wedding. I wanted something small but beautiful, an idea that Grace didn't like at all. She wanted something extravagant, the wedding of the year, according to her.She and I were sitting on the floor of my apartment, flipping through bridal magazines."We could rent a hall, I promise the wedding will be wonderful," Grace suggested."I want it to be in my father's garden, something small but beautiful," I said with a smile.She rolled her eyes."Do you want a wedding like your sister's?" she asked.I immediately shook my head. Despite many changes made to my sister's wedding, it was... boring to my taste. I wanted it to be joyful but intimate."I don't understand you. So, you just want some flowers, tables, and that's it?" she asked."You hit the nail on the head, that's exactly what I want, small but beautiful," I replied with a smile."If an
The most important day of my life arrived. Grace was with me in my parents' room, helping me finish getting ready. I felt like a very pregnant princess."You look like a tent, but one of the cute ones," Grace said out of the blue.I glared at her and she started laughing."Sorry, I'm just nervous. This is your first wedding. I'm as nervous as I was when I lost my virginity," she said.I blinked a few times, still staring at her."How about you stop talking?" I suggested.She immediately rolled her eyes."I'm just nervous," she said.I moved closer to her and hugged her."I'm so happy that you're happy," she said with a trembling voice.I pulled away and smiled. Grace was crying."Thank you for always being by my side, and thanks for all your advice, even though sometimes they're not the best," I said.She hugged me tightly."Let's hurry out or we'll ruin our makeup," she said.We both separated and smiled. Grace left the room, and moments later my father entered."You look so perfect,
Months later.I started placing photos from my wedding with Hayden everywhere, along with some other pictures. I wanted our home to be as cozy as possible."Love, can you help me move this?" I shouted.Hayden appeared shirtless and sweaty, as he was organizing furniture for the baby's room."Darling, stop moving so much, you're in the final days. You're supposed to be resting," he said to me.I rolled my eyes immediately. I hated doing nothing and leaving all the work to him."I'm just putting up some photos. My arm won't fall off," I told him.Grudgingly, Hayden moved a small table that was in the way."Sit down, for God's sake, you're making me nervous," he said.I approached him and hugged him."I'm all sweaty," he said.I shrugged."You look very sexy," I said to him.He smiled."Please sit down," he asked.I let go of him and suddenly felt water running down my legs."Damn," I said.Hayden looked at me nervously."What happened?" he asked.I smiled at him."My water broke. I thin
Two months later.Hayden had left for the workshop early without telling me, or rather ordering me, not to come see the race. Ethan was still too young, and I understood that, but today was the big final, and it seemed fair that our little one saw his father's victory.I called Grace and asked her to come for me. Naturally, she agreed immediately. So here I was, at the door, waiting for my crazy friend, with a bag containing my baby's things and a two-month-old baby in her baby carrier.Grace's car pulled up in front of my house. I hurried over, settled my baby in the back seat, and then got into the front passenger seat next to Grace."Your husband is going to kill me," she said with a smile."He'll kill both of us, so hurry up or we'll be late, and I want to wish him good luck," I told her.Grace nodded and sped off."You haven't been drinking, have you?" I asked her.Grace immediately gave me a dirty look."I'm not a monster, Kat," she said.I shrugged and then smiled at her."Just
The noise of the city woke me up, and as I stretched in bed, I stared at the ceiling for a few minutes. The night before had been great; I can finally say that a man truly appealed to me beyond just for one night. I had finally found a man who was worth it, worthy of being introduced to my parents, or well, to my mother. Carlo was funny, handsome, in his forties, had a great job; we were both lawyers, he was simply perfect, we clicked wonderfully."Good morning, sleepyhead," he said to me as he watched me from the doorway.I got out of bed, took the shirt I had taken off him the night before and put it on my naked body. Then, I walked towards him in a sensual manner."Since when have you been here?" I asked him.He grabbed me by the waist and pulled me towards his chest. I tiptoed and gave him a sweet kiss on the lips. All of this seemed like something out of a movie scene; everything felt so perfect and unreal."Long enough to know that you snore," he said with a slight smile.I ligh
Grace arrived to pick me up super early, as we had a long way to go. Every time a race was held, the road became so complicated, a huge number of people also headed to the same place and the traffic jams became hell."I know we're going to win this time, I feel it in my bones," Grace said excitedly as she took a sip from her energy drink."I hope so, I'm already tired of hearing you complain all the way back," I said.I took out my phone to check some documents."No, no phones, today is the big final and we need to stay focused," she said.She took my phone and threw it in the glove compartment."How many of those have you had?" I asked her.Grace looked at me and smiled, she drank the rest of the drink and tossed it in the back; I looked again and there were five already empty."What if I drive instead?" I asked her.Grace shook her head immediately."Don't worry, I have everything under control. Now relax, we'll soon see the best race in the world and I'll finally be a winner," she
The screams distracted me from the reporters' questions. I turned to see what was causing the commotion, and there she was, squeezing her friend as viscous liquid dripped down her clothes. I left the reporters and ran toward her. When I arrived, I saw with horror: the shirt I had given her was a mess, completely soaked with vomit."I'll pay for it," her friend said as she continued to squeeze her. Finally, she let go, and with a sudden fit of rage, grabbed the drunk girl by the collar and squeezed. I acted immediately, pulling her away by grabbing her waist, although I got covered in vomit in the process."I'm going to kill you, Grace!" she yelled furiously. I carried her in my arms to the motorhome, let her go, and looked her in the eyes. Her expression of anger was so intense that it was a little scary."Do you want me to lend you some more clothes?" I asked.Without saying a word, she began to undress until she was in her underwear. I silently watched her for a long moment; her phy
When we left the motorhome, the flashes of the cameras were everywhere. I grabbed Grace's arm tightly; she, completely soaked, looked at me."What's wrong now?" she asked.I lowered my head a little. At first, I wasn't ashamed of him seeing me semi-naked, as it seemed ridiculous to me that he would look at me with lustful eyes. But seeing myself in the mirror and noticing how horrible I looked, embarrassment took hold of me."Everyone saw how you vomited on me, I'm embarrassed," I lied.I considered myself a strong and self-assured woman, but this had caught me by surprise. Maybe it was because my ex-fiance had messed with my little sister, or maybe it was because of the impending menopause, but I felt really bad, and that wasn't an exaggeration."Great! We'll be famous, even if it's just for a couple of weeks," Grace said enthusiastically.It was because of things like this that I didn't send her packing. Even though Grace was so crazy, she brought fun to my life, and I was infinitel
