Don't worry, she will come

Steven was sure Tracy would blame him for his actions, and may not pay up his balance, he was also ready, he wasn't going to release the pictures if he didn't get his balance, but that was not the case, when she heard of his actions she called immediately and congratulated Him for doing a better job, she even added something to his balance that was when he knew that the girl was a she devil, she couldn't be underestimated, behind her facial make up was a devil who would do anything to get what she wants.

Steven thought that he was going to destroy her to redeem himself, he had almost lost his life, he was never going to be able to even see his child, this was the first time his dirty actions were yielding fruit, though he knew confronting Amanda was something he should not repeat, else, she might remember where she had seen him and that may not be so funny.

Steven was just one day away from the wedding date of his newly found enemy, he begged the doctor in charge to discharge him yet they refused saying it was risky for him, that he could black out on the street, especially if he walked under the sun, he didn't plan to walk under the sun or even stay out too long, he just wanted to show his face at the wedding and also to make sure Tracy sees him, he wanted to give her sleepless nights before he comes back to finish her for good, but once again, Snake had a Better idea, he said, for a girl who could pull the dragons to work for her, could have other group and since he was still in a vulnerable state and had no one with him except him, then it would be a wrong move to invite more trouble.

But he just couldn't lazy around, he was going to do something no matter what, so he took pictures of him self with a note and sent it to her through Snake, it was wrapped well with fancy papers as though it was a big wedding gift, Snake was allowed to attend to ensure the gift was delivered.

He wore a dark shade against a Forest Green shirt, with a black plain trouser, he sure looks good.

"So you can be this cute? Steven says, admiring the man that was with him.

He would also not.miss this chance if talking about himself, so he says.

"I used to be a very fine boy, just that poverty made me like this, I got into the street, but I know someday, I am going to drop this job, fall inlove and have kids of my own". At the mention of kids, Steven thought for once about Amanda, he is not inlove with her, but the fact that he knows that she is carrying his baby, only makes him feel somehow connected to her.

********************************************

Josh visits Dave everyday, since he was the planner himself, he ensures his friend was indeed happy, and was doing the right thing but what he saw was that his friend was only marrying her, because she was carrying his baby.

Josh couldn't help, but feel sorry for his friend, but he couldn't do anything to help him, he just needed to stand tall with him and help him get through all.

"Are you sure this is what you want to do?

He asked on the eve of the wedding, you don't have to marry her if you don't want to".

Dave knew he was only looking out for him but he was going to be a father and he couldn't just allow his child grow differently while he stayed differently, he wanted a family that stays together not a family that would be separated.

"I don't know what I am doing Josh, all I know is that I am doing this for my child"

"What about your happiness, don't you think that is important too?

He was making it really hard for him, but even though he doesn't want to accept it, happiness was far from what he was feeling, he stopped knowing what it means to be truely happy when Amanda started to loose interest in him, he stopped knowing what happiness was when she would rather be somewhere else than get close to him.

There was no intimacy between them, and gradually they drifted apart.

He didn't want to say what he had in mind out but Josh was that friend that understood everything even the unspoken.

"Amanda was my happiness, she left and took it with her, now she is sharing it with another man"

"She made her choice, you cannot blame yourself for it, you have to be strong and stand tall, if you really don't think you will be happy with Tracy you need to just walk away now"

"I am sorry Josh, I am already in too deep, with time I will become happy"

He assured, hoping he would drop the discussion, but his face only darkened.

Dave then tried to change the topic, he didn't like the way his friend was looking at him, he was going to be okay, he was no longer as naive as before, he wouldn't let anyone not even Tracy with all the power that surrounds her destroy him.

"Did you send her the invitation?

Dave asked as he watched his friend who didn't say a word, but only nodded his head in affirmation.

Dave had asked him to send a special invitation to Amanda, he wasn't sure if she would come since she was in another state and her pregnancy was already in the danger period, yet he wished to see her face again, it's been months since she left, he just wanted to see her, not that he sent her the invite to spite her, after all they were not officially divorced, they were only separated but he knew he had no right over her.

" I think she will come".

Dave's eyes opened wide, he couldn't believe what he just heard but he wished for it to be true, he didn't want to ask his friend how he knew she would be at the wedding he knew his friend too well, he had people feeding him with information everywhere.

Josh could see how surprised he was and so he said it again to reassure him.

"Don't worry, she will come.
