My eyes never left Riley for one minute.
Even if it meant not enjoying my day.
I wouldn't let her ruin anything.
The bridal shower was in full swing, laughter and chatter filling the air as games were played. Guess the wedding dress design, Bridal Bingo, Who Knows the Bride Best?all of it blending into a mix of champagne-fueled fun.
Mum was glowing, basking in the attention, while Marissa ran the show like the socialite powerhouse she was.
"Come on, ladies! Last round," Marissa announced, her voice full of amusement. "Let's see who knows Lorelei best."
Mum laughed, shaking her head as guests shouted out answers to random questions about her favorite foods, colors, and the wedding plans. It was silly, extravagant, and absolutely her.
I tried to enjoy it.
I tried to focus on the game
