"I think that will be a good place to stop for today." The judge said. "We'll continue with Ms Sidle's testimony on Monday."
"Your honour." Sara said.
"Yes Ms Sidle?" He asked.
"Is there any chance we can continue?" Sara requested.
"That's an odd request Ms Sidle. For what purpose would you like to continue?"
"I have a subpoena to testify in San Francisco on Monday morning. It was supposed to be today but they've managed to push it back until Monday. My lawyers tried to contest it but I need to be there. I'm supposed be at work by midnight and I'm getting married tomorrow." Sara replied.
"Mr Green how many more questions do you have?" The judge asked the defence lawyer. "Do you think you can be done in an hour?"
"I believe so."
"Then we'll continue given Ms Sidle's circumstances."
"Hey girl." Warrick said when he walked into the locker room. Sara was putting her things in her locker.
"Hey Warrick."
"Getting nervous? There's only about 14 ½ hours to go." He said looking at his watch.
"No." Sara replied.
"Terrified?"
"No."
"Planning on skipping town?"
"Not unless you count going to San Francisco tomorrow." Sara replied.
"So no second thoughts?" Warrick questioned.
"Not a one." She closed her locker door. "Why did Nick say something?"
"I haven't spoken since he headed home yesterday after shift." He paused. "By the way how did testifying go?"
"Fine, the judge wanted to finish for the weekend halfway through my testimony but I explained about having to go to San Francisco, so he let it go on until my testimony was done. So that's one thing off my list."
"So getting married doesn't faze you the slightest bit?" Warrick questioned.
"No, but ask me again in 14 hours."
"Where's Nick anyway?" Warrick inquired.
"Picking his parents up at the airport. Bill had to work today, so Jillian flew to Austin this afternoon and they both got a flight out to Vegas."
" Austin?" Warrick questioned.
"You knew Nick's father was on the Texas Supreme Court, it's based in Austin. So he's there during the week." Sara replied. "I'm going to grab some coffee."
"I don't think Greg is in yet."
"I guess I'm going on a coffee search." Sara stated. "See you later."
…
"So can I talk you out of it?" Greg asked as he appeared in the doorway to the break room.
"Oh hey Greg and no you can't talk me out of it."
"Had to give it a shot. Want some coffee?" Greg inquired.
"Please." Sara replied.
Greg pulled a bag of coffee beans out of his pocket.
"Ran out." Greg explained. "So are you nervous?"
"No and no second thoughts either."
"Sign of a good decision." Catherine walked in.
"I think so." Sara replied.
"I checked your dress no creases." Catherine told her. Sara had let Catherine take both the dresses she selected home with her so Nick didn't see them.
"You've got her dress?" Greg questioned.
"Both of them." Catherine replied.
"You can't wear the same dress to two weddings." Sara told Greg.
"A fashion faux pas?" Greg asked. "You learn something new around here everyday."
