Anita's Secret 2
The wedding is near!
Intro

It was a beautiful day in January and a young woman walked up to a house. It was some time ago, she saw her for the last time and she couldn't wait to she her again.

The dark-haired woman took a deep breath and she knocked on the door. A few seconds later, the door flew open and a young blond girl looked to her.

"Hi!" she said with a big grin and she looked to the woman with a surprised look. "I thought you were Mommy." she suddenly said and she looked to her feet.

"Hannah, what did your mother and I tell you about opening the door without us?" suddenly sounded and a young light-brown haired man walked to the door. The woman smiled a little bit. It meant that Anita finally found a man who wanted to share his life with her and her girl.

"But I thought it was Mommy!" Hannah looked up and then she saw the woman standing there. The woman saw her thinking, but it looked like Hannah couldn't remember it. Suddenly, Hannah turned around and she walked back inside the house.

Victor sighed and he looked to the woman who was still standing there. "I'm sorry, can I help you with anything?"

"I'm looking for Anita Knight. Is she around?"

Victor gave her a little smile. "She is at the grocery store at this moment." he looked at her and stepped aside. "But if you want, you can wait inside."

The woman smiled and she stepped inside. "Thank you." she said. She walked into the living room and she looked around her. Everything was just like she could remember it. Even the same pictures were still there and she even saw the same drawings that Hannah made some long time ago.

"Do you want some tea?" The woman turned around and she saw Victor standing there with a teapot and teacups in his hands

"I'd love to." she said and she sat down in one of the chairs. Every little thing was just like she remembered. The only thing that was different was that Hannah grew a lot since she saw her for the last time.

"So, why do you want to talk to Anita?" Victor looked to the woman. She reminded him of someone, but he couldn't remember where he should have seen her before.

"Oh, I'm so sorry!" the woman suddenly said and she looked to Victor. "I forgot the introduce myself." she stood up from the chair and she walked to Victor. "My name is Marian Hathaway."

Victor smiled as he gave Marian his hand. "I'm Victor Volt, Anita's partner." Victor looked at Marian and he laughed a little bit. "I think that you are now going to say that you are not related to Anne Hathaway, right?"

"As far as I know, I'm not related to any famous person who has Hathaway as their last name." Marian looked around her. "I'm an old friend of Anita; I've known her ever since we shared a room together during our studies at the Secret Agent University."

So that's why she reminded of someone, I saw her in one of Anita's picture albums, Victor thought and he looked to Marian. "So you know Anita for some time then."

Marian nodded and just when she wanted to say something, the front door went open, followed by Hannah running downstairs. "Mommy!" sounded from the hall and Marian chuckled.

"Hannah, how many times do I have to tell you that you shouldn't tackle your mother down when she comes home?" said Victor and he walked to Anita, who was carrying some bags full of groceries.

"You know I don't mind it, Victor." Anita laughed and she looked to Victor. "But could you help me please with these bags? They are heavier that I thought they would be."

Victor smiled and grabbed the bags. "Why don't you go inside and let me do this?" he said and he looked to Anita. "There is a visitor for you."

"Really?" Anita didn't expect anyone that day, so she started to wonder who it could be. "Are you sure I shouldn't…?"

"You just go and get some tea." said Victor and he gave her a little push towards the living room.

Anita smiled a little bit and she walked into the living room. "Marian? Is that really you?"

Marian laughed and she walked towards Anita. "Yep and you didn't change a bit." she said when she pulled Anita into a hug.

"It's been too long ago that we had seen each other for the last time." said Anita and she looked to Marian. "How are you?"

"Wonderful." Marian said and she showed Anita her hand. "I got married two weeks ago."

Anita's mouth felt wide open when she took a look at the ring. "Really? So why wasn't I invited?" She couldn't believe that Marian would get married without her best friend.

"Because I didn't know I was going to get married!" when she saw Anita's surprised look, Marian told what happened on her wedding day. "Robert arranged a shot-gun Vegas Wedding for my birthday. It was the big surprise of that day. He took me to Las Vegas so we could get some nice time off and before I knew it, there is his mother in the hotel room, holding the wedding dress I tried on a month ago."

"So you and Robert did have wedding plans." said Anita. "But why…?"

"Yes we had wedding plans, but I thought that would take longer than just a month." Marian sighed. "Any ways, I tried to ask my mother-in-law what was going on, but she just got me into the wedding dress and she took me outside the hotel. There was a big limousine waiting for me and the next thing I know, I'm in a little chapel, getting married by Elvis Presley."

Anita started to laugh. Marian wasn't that kind of woman who wanted to get married by Elvis, she wanted to get married in a castle with a lot of romantic things. "I take that as a remarriage?" she said and she looked to Marian.

"Yeah, it was fun to be married by Elvis, but I want a real marriage with everything on it." Marian looked around her and she smiled. "I noticed that you have a wonderful fiancé to share your life with and how is Hannah?"

Just when Marian asked Anita that, Victor walked into the room, with Hannah on his shoulders. "Mommy," Victor said with a teasing smile. "this little girl wants to know who she is." Victor placed Hannah on the ground and he sat down in a chair.

Marian laughed and she kneeled down next to Hannah. "So you don't remember me anymore?" she said and she looked into Hannah's eyes. Hannah shook her head and Marian stood up. She walked to the wall and took one of Hannah's drawings of that wall. "I'm Auntie Marian."

"Really?" Hannah looked to Marian and suddenly she remembered it. "You are Auntie Marian." Hannah wrapped her arms around Marian's neck and she gave her 'Auntie' a hug.

"So, Marian, are you going to stay with us for dinner?" Anita asked after Hannah stopped hugging Marian. There was so much she wanted to talk about with Marian. It was almost three years ago since they saw each other for the last time.

"I'd love to!" said Marian. "It's been such a long time ago since I saw you and Hannah for the last time." After Victor announced that he and Hannah would be making dinner, Marian looked to her best friend. "And how about Victor and you, do you two have any wedding plans?"

Anita smiled a little bit. "Victor doesn't want to tell me a thing about when he will be proposing to me. But we will get married someday soon." she looked to Marian. "I missed you, Marian." Anita whispered.

Marian smiled and she gave her best friend a hug. "Missed you too, Anita."
