car when I found myself in a hug. CeCe squealed as she hugged me. I laughed and hugged her

back.

“You look amazing!” she told me.

“Look who’s talking. You are radiating,” I said to her. She giggled.

“I am annoyingly happy,” she confessed, making me laugh.

“As you should be. Come and meet my friend,” I said and pulled her over to where Martin stood

with an amused smile. “CeCe this is Martin, Martin this is CeCe, the bride to be,” I introduced

man you left with,” she whispered. Martin could hear her with his improved hearing, and he had to

fight not to laugh.

as well?” she asked. Martin had to pretend to look for something in the back of his car. But my

hearing and the slight shaking of his shoulders told me he was laughing.

I pretended to be shocked.
