Chapter 73 Spontaneous decision

Alex stood in front of the mirror, his tuxedo fitting in progress. The tailor, a seasoned professional, looked at him expectantly.

"So, Mr. Harris, do you prefer the classic black tuxedo or the elegant white one?" the tallor inquired, holding up each option for Alex's consideration.

Alex glanced at himself in the mirror, then turned to his friend Christian, who was lounging on a nearby couch. "Hey, Christian, what do you think? Black or white?

Christian squinted at the tuxedos, scratching his head. "Honestly, they look the same to me, mate. Whichever or floats your boat."

Alex rolled his eyes playfully at Christian's lack of enthusiasm. "Fine, I'll wear the white one for the wedding ceremony and the black one for the reception," he decided, turning back to the tailor.

The tailor nodded in agreement, taking note of Alex's choice before making some final adjustments to ensure the perfect fit.

As Alex sat down next to Christian on the couch, he let out a sigh, making Christian to ask, "What's with the sigh, Alex?"

Ales shrugged, a hint of introspection in his eyes. "It's just... I can't believe I'll be married in less than a month."

Christian chuckled, patting Alex's shoulder reassuringly. "Isn't that what you want? To marry Lisa?"

Alex hesitated for a moment, his thoughts drifting. In truth, while he had agreed to the wedding, deep down, he doesn't want the wedding to be this sudden but- since he promised Lisa and doesn't want to see her sad, he agree to her request. Instead of telling Christian he replied simply.

"Hey, don't worry. Being married won't change you, You'll still be the grumpy Alexander Harris we all know and love," he teased with a grin.

Alex nudged Christian's stomach playfully with his elbow, causing Christian to wince in mock pain "Duch what was that for?
