Jay was stuck in between Mama Jeana and Tita Gemma. They were in a taxi on their way to the bridal boutique.
All the girl would meet Jay there.
Meanwhile. Keifer had been taken to the suite shop by the whole of section e, including Aries, Angelo, and Percy.
As far as Keifer knew. This was going to be a long day.

Jay's pov
We were on our way to the bridal boutique. The road we were on was extremely busy. People walking on the sidewalk. Cars ans taxis lined the streets.
The shops to the side were crowded with people. Most of these shops were luxury boutiques.
The name and sign were on huge banners on the glass windows.
We stopped in front of a large building.
The first floor was decorated with gold. The shop name was displayed on a large gold plaque. The letters shimmered beneath the sun.
As I stepped out of tbe car, the noise hit me like a physical blow.
The peace of the car was gone replaced by the loudness of the street.
Inside the shop. Well more like building. The racks were linned with dresses. All white. Some were plain and simple. Some were decorated heavily with lace. And some were just hard to explain.
There were floor length pieces and short knee length dresses as well.
Full sleeves and short sleeves. Even sleeveless ones.
I was overwhelmed by the amount of white fabric.
We walked over to the help desk at the front of the store.
Tita Gemma showed them something on her phone. Telling them we had an appointment.
The store assistant immediately took us to the top floor.
There were less dresses. But each one was looking even more expensive than the ones downstairs.
"Okay then" Tita Gemma said clapping her hands together. "Jay. Which dress should we start with"
"I-I don't really…know" I stammered
"Well that's fine" Sge looked arounder the room and immediately picked a dress of the rack.
"Let's start with this one. Shall we?"
She handed me a white dress that was drenched in lace.
I took it and climmes into the change room.

We were looking through our fourth rack of suits. But the boys still seemed to mot like the suite i had picked out for myself.
I found multipal replacements but they still thought ny choice was too boring.
Well according to Percy. And since nobody could stop Percy. We had spent over an hour jusg looking for a suite.
I sat there wondering what Jay was doing.
If Tita Gemma and Tita Jeana had given her the dress i made for her yet.
I told them not to give it to her immediately. Just to give it tk her after a few dresses.
I was just desperate to see her. I missed her.

I had tried on like probably fifty dresses. (I actually tried on five) but it felt like fifty.
We still hadn't found the perfect dress.
The sales clerk brought out a rack. There was only one dress hung on it. But jt was beautiful.
"Maybe you would like to try our custom made dress?" She said turning it to face me.
Tita Gemma stood up.
"YES!!" "Is it perfect!!" She exclaimed.
I laughed and took it into the chage room.
I looked af myself in the mirror after I put it on.
It was sleeveless. Like a tube top. But there was net the replaced the fabric at the back.
It wasn't really net. But it was like wire sewed into net.
There were small studded diamonds all over.
The silver embroidery shimmering in the light.
On closer inspection i noticed something unusual.
There were two people embroidered on it.
And that's when I realised. It was me and Keifer. It was our story.
How we met. The classroom. The gym. The music room. His car. The beach.
Every little detail about our lives was there.
I didn't even realise when tears started to roll down my cheeks.
I walked out of the change room and saw all the girls gathered in one place holding a matching veil.
"!SURPRISE!" They all shouted together.
The tears atrted to roll down faster.
"You guys did this? For me?"
"Actually we were just the helpers."
Mama said walking towards me with the veil and placing it carefully on my head.
"It was actually this man…"
The all move to thw side. Standing there right in front of me was…Keifer.
Be was wearing and pich black suite.
So dark that it was in great contrast to my dress.
I didn't notice the girls and the sales lady walk out. I only noticed the man standing right in front of me.
"Kei-fer" I stammered. Freash teats spilling from my eyes.
"You look beautiful Jay"
He walked towards me. Pulling me into a gentle embrace. I looked up at him.
"You really made this dress."
He nodded.
"When did you find the time?"
"I was working on it while i was in London"
"I knew who i was going to marry. And there was no way i was letting that person get a ready made dress for our wedding"
"You knew my size?"
"Of course i knew" "I know everything"
I laughed.
He pulled me into a quick kiss.
The outside noise gone. All thag remained was us.
We bought the dress and went home. It had been a long day and all i wanted tk do was to eat lunch and dinner. Then sleep.
