The only issue is that I’m starting to see my best gal in a different light as the wedding date draws near.
I’ve always found her beautiful, but right nowโฆ I realize that I’ve been searching for a bit too long. I held my hand there for a minute longer. When she’s angry, what happens? letting her sleep on my mattress.
And it strikes me like a ton of bricks before I really realize what’s happening. I have a crush on my closest friend. Infatuated, not just in love.
Nothing seems to be able to take my mind off the reality that nobody can match her. Not the girl that I’m attempting to date as I arrange Lia’s nuptials. Not her angry fiancรฉ, who thinks I’m a little too involved. And not the day of her upcoming wedding.
It suggests that I have one more thing to do. Show Lia that I am the person she should be with instead than anybody else. But I’m finding it far harder to claim the girl than I’d like to admit, because of the strain of her engagement, the tension of her soon-to-be mother-in-law, and the heart-stopping anxieties running through me.
Say a little prayer for me, please.
