And I don’t know, there’s been a bunch of other little things here and there. “No, he didn’t come right out and say it, but I could tell. I huff and my sadness is immediately replaced with irritation. Did he actually say he was freaked out that you caught the bouquet?” He could have just been a little surprised.
“You mean that’s it? That’s where all of this doubt and sadness is coming from? He looked at you a little funny when you caught a bouquet at a wedding?

Does it sound dumb that my change of heart came from being jealous of her and Jim? That seeing them so happy and pledging their love to one another has made me realize how much I want that for myself?
“Okay, what little things? And why is this news to me that you even care about getting married? You have always been a staunch supporter of living in sin because of your parents.
