476 Words
For the next six months, Carrie was busy making wedding preparations when she wasn’t working. But with the help of her matron of honor, her best friend, Terrie, Carrie was able to pull everything off.
But the surprises kept coming for Carrie—in the form of her bachelorette party that Terrie set up. Terrie had made it so Carrie’s sister, Kayla, whom Carrie had been estranged for a while, had agreed to show up at the bachelorette party to surprise Carrie.
And sure enough, when Carrie showed up at the country club where Terrie arranged to have Carrie’s bachelorette party, Kayla was waiting to make amends with Carrie.
Meanwhile, Mike got the shock of his life when the stripper that came out of the cake at Mike’s bachelor party turned out to be an ex-girlfriend. She had been doing jobs as a stripper/waitress to make ends meet after her and Mike broke things off to make ends meet.
“Tammy?!” Mike said, surprised to see her at his bachelor party.
“Well, hello, Mike! It’s good to see you! I just didn’t think I’d see you at your bachelor party.” Tammy exclaimed.
“I never thought I’d see you doing this?!” Mike said, pointing to the cake Tammy popped out of.
“Well, a girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do to make ends meet!”
“Things that bad after our breakup?”
“No, just your average run-of-the-mill bad luck.” Tammy stated, not wanting to get into everything that had gone on since they separated.
“Well, I wish it could have been under better circumstances, it is good to see you again.”
“I can’t believe you’re engaged? I remember when we were dating; you swore you’d never marry?” Tammy added.
“Well, what can I say, the right girl came along.” Mike said, unable to explain how he changed his mind since their breakup.
“Well, I wish you all the happiness you deserve.” Tammy congratulated him.
“Thank you, Tammy, I wish you the best too. I hope things get better for you.” Mike said, wishing his ex-girlfriend well before she departed the room after her “striptease.”
It was a good night, despite seeing his ex-girlfriend pop out of his bachelor party cake. It was at that moment, he knew he was making the right decision marrying Carrie.
Back at the country club where Carrie’s bachelorette party was, Carrie was making amends with her estranged sister, Kayla that Terrie had arranged to surprise Carrie.
Terrie was truly a good friend. Arranging to fly her sister to her bachelorette party and upcoming wedding and helping Mike with the engagement details…she really was blessed to have such good people in her life.
Carrie couldn’t wait for the wedding to arrive.
