Weekly Contest #55
“Can you keep a secret?” I looked up with a smile on my face and a spoonful of pudding in my hand. “Sure.” Maggie shifted uncomfortably. “This isn’t our first time meeting each other.” “Right,” I said. “We’ve been friends for three months now.

I’m done,” Melanie sighed, sitting down for the first time in two hours. “You have way too much hair, you know.” I stared at my reflection and sighed contentedly. “I love it. Thank you so much. White roses are his favorite, you know. That’s why I picked them.” Melanie smiled. “You look beautiful.” “Thank you.” I stood quickly. “How much time do I have before the wedding starts?” She reac...
