Greg’s POV?
I felt so good because i was able to help Starr. I couldn’t help it, i felt more pity for them when i heard her conversation with her dad earlier who also came and left.
.
#Flashback
“Kendrick will be fine as far as he’s here, am still trying ha-rd to raise more money, i just want to look for a good job,” Starr said to her dad.
“how do you intend to do that?
“i will get a part time job. Nica will help me out in that, i will do everything i can to help Kendrick,”.
“i know it not going to be easy Starr, but we will all support you in this,” Arnold said while she nodded.
#end of flashback.

I felt something different about her, but i can’t just figure it out. So i just thought it will be kind of me if i help them out without them paying me a dime.
I arrived to one of my mansion cos Natasha was already there waiting for me.
“Ta…daaaa! she said in excitement when i walked in, the room was filled with romantic fragrance.
“Tasha..
“aren’t you happy seeing me,” she smiled seductively as she walked closer and wrapped her hands around my ne-ck, i stare at her with a smile and notice she was wearing a short transparent black gown.
“glad you came, we’ll have dinner with my parents tomorrow,” i said while she smiled then ki-ssed me.
“okay then,” she smiled then held my hand as we walked to my large bedroom.
“dinner is ready,” she squeaked happily.
“thank you Natasha, i miss your cooking,” i said then dropped my phone on the bed.
“and sadly you look so tired today,” she said.
“sure… it just like other days but with you… i feel so strong now,”
“Love,” i said tenderly as i held her hand.
“did you confront Sarah? i asked while she withdrew my hand from hers, then stood up.
“she told you that? she asked.
“just answer my question first,” i said calmly, not trying to sound harsh.
“yes i did,” she said peskily
“why? you don’t even know her… Sarah is still my friend and i don’t want to ruin that friendship i have with her…
“because you still love her? Natasha interrupted while i stood up.
“of course not.. it you i love, i just didn’t like the fact you have to confront her. Can’t you even see Sarah has been avoiding me ever since i told her am getting married,”
“Greg, am your fiancee’, i have every right to confront her and i don’t freaky care if you guys know each other for long. I will do everything to keep my man! i know how your ex can be atimes they might be so desperate,” she half yelled.
“so does that mean i should also go to Derek and confront him since he’s your ex, please Natasha you should be more matured and let at least trust each other,” i said while she glare at me then turn to leave but i quickly held her back.
” i should be the one to get angry, so stop this co-cky attitude of yours cos we are getting married in few days time,” i said then pulled her into a hug.

Starr’s POV?
I return home later in the evening so exhausted, i couldn’t help but keep wondering what Dr.Greg told me.
“hey, you’re home already,” Laura said, as she fully walked in then sat down next to me.
“look what we have here,” i said as i removed the invitation card from my bag and gave it to her.
“huh! where did you get this? she asked, surprised!.
“he gave me this himself… am surprise as well! he truly getting married,” i said while Laura gasped, she seems so surprise to see it.
“what, that means you have to go,” she said while i rolled my eyes.
“i don’t want to. Don’t you realize how rich that doctor is, i mean how can a poor girl like me wander in such place, i might end up disgracing myself,” i said while Laura laughed.
“i wish am in your shoes you know, you guys seems to get alone so soon,”
“not really, but he seems nice and most importantly he decided not to collect dime from us, he said he’ll settle that himself and we don’t have to worry about Kendrick bills,” i said while Laura looked surprised.
“he did?
“sure… i was so happy and i have to call Kendrick’s dad and told him the good news, he said he’ll go tomorrow to thank him. Doctor Greg is so kind,” i smiled.
“then you have to attend his wedding, you know it a must,”
“he said if i can’t make it, he’s still okay with it, but i will try to show up there,” i said.
“oh! i can’t believe you are actually becoming more close to Greg, but it saddens my heart to know he’s getting married, i mean he’s so handsome to get married this early, is he even ready to be committed? is he even ready to be a father and a husband? Laura kept blabbing.. while i rolled my eyes.
“he’s not a playboy i guess and well i don’t care about that but i wish him good luck. Can you just stop blabbing nonsense and if you’re having a crush on him you better stop it cos his wife might kill you,” i said while she laughed.
“as if you’re also not crushing,”
“oh! me, am not that cheap to do that Laura. I admit he’s handsome, good looking, rich, intelligent and any good words that can be use to describe him but i will never stop loving Kendrick, my heart will never allow me to do that,” i said.
“don’t be too sure my dear! i don’t know why you’re stick to that Kendrick ever since we were kid. You’ve turn down like thousands of men all in the name of the love you have for him,” she said.
“don’t try to brainwash me Laura. I always feel it, Kendrick is the only right man for me,” i smiled.
.
▪▪▪The next day, i and Mr. Sean went to visit Kendrick at the hospital as usual, we waited for Dr. Greg but he didn’t come, gladly on of his nurse told us be wouldn’t show up this week and i wonder why- maybe he’s preparing for his wedding..
I smiled as i sat down on a chair close to Kendrick, he was still lying on the bed. It hurt a lot to see him like this.
“Kendrick you do still remember when we were still kids, we promise to always be there for each other and that’s what am doing, am fulfilling my promise. We always shared our dreams together, you were like a brother to me, so caring, loving and compa-ssionate, you’ve saved me several times whenever i got into trouble and if not for you, my ne-cklace would have been missing,” i said as tears flowed down my cheeks.
“all we ever wanted was a good and simple life, a very quiet life where we will be happy, please wake up soon so we can fulfilled those dreams. I miss you so much,” i cried silently as i touched his hands gently.
?”your.. love is like a sun
“that light up my whole world…?
?….i feel the warmth.. inside…?
.
I sang our favorite song as i stare at Kendrick, who wasn’t moving nor saying anything, his eyes were closed, he look so pale. I miss his smiles, his jokes and everything.
The door went open and Mr. Sean walked in.
“Starr,” he called as he rush to where i was sitting.
“you don’t have to cry all the time, Kendrick is still alive,” he said patting my back.
“i know that dad, am just remembering him that we have a lot to fulfill together, i hoped to find my real family back someday and he also hoped to get to know and see his twin brother, he can’t just leave us yet, i need to give him thousands reason to come back to us and be alive and that’s what am gonna do until he finally wakes up,” i said.
“of course he will, it just a matter of time,” he said while i nodded.
“seems like doctor will be so busy these week, but are you really going for the wedding? he asked.
“i really don’t know but i don’t want to, how can i leave Kendrick here to attend to someone’s wedding i b-arely know but i just have too because Dr. Greg have been of help to us recently,” i said.
?Wedding bells….??
“Looking perfect! Tony said with a smile, as he adjust Greg’s ne-cktie.
“you look so beautiful bro,” Tony smiled.
“thanks for your support best man,” Greg chuckle.
“Greg.. Dr. Lowell is here already,” Dave said as he walked up to them, he’s also one of Greg’s friend.
“thank goodness he came, am glad he did! Today is one of my happiest day,” he smiled.
“and Natasha have you call her yet? Dave asked.
“not yet,” Greg smiled then adjust his suit. He was gorgeously dressed, looking so handsome.
“Kinh and Hilary also came yesterday, today is gonna be a big day you know,” Greg said.
“that’s for sure… but what about Sarah? he asked looking at Tony.
“i don’t know .. but i don’t think she’ll come,” Tony said while he shrugged.
*
▪ Sarah sat down at the wine bar early that morning busy with her drink.
.
“you look gorgeous as always,” Edward complimented with a smile.
“thanks and you’re the most handsome husband ever. Greg will be so happy to see us,” she giggle.
“sure, so are you good to go? he asked.
“yes,” Mabel smiled as she clasped their hands and they both walked downstairs- surprise to see Sarah drunk..
“is too early for this Sarah.. i thought you were already dressed up? Edward asked as he quickly collect the bottle of wine from her.
“am not drunk dad… i just want to forget my sorrows,” She said.
“Sarah dear, i know how ha-rd it is for you, i know you still love Greg but you just have to let go in order not to hurt yourself. You have to und-erstand the situation,” Mabel said calmly, as she caress her hair but Sarah quickly stood up in anger.
“it too easy for you to say this, because that exactly what you did and stole dad away from my mom. My mom ended up being a single mother because of you and i won’t let that happen to me either,” she said angrily then walked out on them. Edward and Mabel were both surprise to hear her say that.
“i guess Erica is brainwashing her with all her lies again, let go Mabel!,” Edward said.
“no! i have to talk to her before she do anything to hurt herself,”
“let her be, i guess she need some time alone..
Mabel’s POV?
I and Edward arrived at the church, it was so huge, beautifully decorated and nice looking, everyone look so perfect, i must admit the Bernardo’s are so wealthy because lots of people were already at the church waiting for the bride. Greg looked so handsome and i was so happy for him, he’s like a son to me, because i was there when they all grew up. This was something i was hoping for my Princess someday, to witness such a special day of her life, to see her get married to the man she loves and the man who also love and cherish her just like Edward, but that was just an illusion, it might never happen. I was so lost in my thought- what if Princess is still alive somewhere? will i even recognize my own daughter? is she married? what did her love life look like? is she even educated? Did she have a family who she loves already and has forgotten about us? Thousands of questions kept running throu-ghmy mind, tears slide down my eyes when i felt Edward warm arms around my shoulder.
“are you crying? he asked while i quickly wipe off my tears and smiled.
“am just happy for Greg,” i said in a sad tone.
Starr’s POV?
I don’t think coming here was a good idea, but am here already. I wore a simple blue gown and loose my long hair, Laura help me with the make up, although it was just a light make up and nothing more. I was so nervous because i was surprise by the expensive cars i saw parked outside, i couldn’t help but stare at some people who just walked into the church, they looked so gorgeous, richly dressed. I stare at my dress then sigh, anyone will know am obviously just a poor girl. I know Dr. Greg will not mind if i come or not! Maybe i should go or maybe i would have to wait for the reception… I was still complementing when someone walked up to me, i was surprise to see him because i don’t know anyone here.
“finally! the guy said with a smile, he looks so familiar.
“are you the girl we meet at the restaurant, few weeks back? he asked.
what! could this be the Tony who helped me?
“yes.. are you Tony? i asked
“you still remember my name and one sad thing, i didn’t get to know your name,” he said while i chuckle.
“thank you once again, am Starr,” i said.
“Starr! what a nice name. I thought i will never see you, i thought you were even a ghost never to be seen again,” he laughed, he seems to be so cheerful. I felt kinda relief he’s with me, even thou i don’t know actually, at least he talks freely with me and this will calm down my nervousness.
“are you also here for the wedding? he asked while i nodded.
“seriously? fate has it own way to bring us together again, i mean did you know Greg or rather Natasha? he asked.
“it Dr. Greg, he invite me,” i said with a smile.
“wow! so Greg knew you all this while, well let go in, the bride might come any time soon,” he said while i nodded. I hope the wedding will gonna end well cos i don’t know why am having a bad feeling about the whole thing, maybe it because i was just too nervous…?
hmmm??…
