The Accidental Wife by Sara Islam

Chapter 51 on her.

"You look absolutely stunning!" I gushed as my best friend twirled in the wedding dress I made for her. It looked perfect on

"It's amazing! Thank you!" she exclaimed, giving me a tight hug. We were currently at the atelier at my house and that was the final fitting for the dress

Her wedding was in ten days, and I was pretty excited for her. Sam was the perfect man for her, and he made her really happy. She deserved someone like him, and she was the perfect partner for him.

I was glad that I was the one who played the matchmaker in their relationship, and I always made sure to tease them about that.

"Rosie, what do you think?" Maya asked my little girl who seemed a little bit sullen. She had been acting like that for the past five days and I didn't understand what was going on. I tried to get her to talk, but she refused to tell me anything. Even Julian tried to get her to talk "You look beautiful." she smiled at Maya, but I could tell that it wasn't my daughter's real smile.

"I don't know what to do. She has been like that for a while. One day she was all good and the next she was in a constant bad mood" I sighed, rubbing my forehead

"Did anything happen recently?" she asked me and I shook my head.

"I even made sure that she wasn't home when Matt came over to talk to me about Julian," I told her, I had told her before what happened, but I kept some parts to myself. Precisely, I kept anything related to the way I had been feeling out

"Just take slow steps with her and she's going to open up to you," Maya assured me. "Speaking of Julian, you sure you don't mind inviting him to the wedding?"

"Yes, I don't mind. I have learned to co-exist with Julian and things have been good between us," I told her as 1 helped her out of the dress.

made my way to Rosie's room and found her playing with her dolls. I sat down on the floor beside her and kissed her cheek. "What's my most favorite girl in the world doing?" I asked her. "Playing with my dolls. Do you want to play with me?" she asked me, giving me one of the dolls, specifically,
