Chapter 15

By: Case Sense

Inside the restaurant:

Cody couldn't believe what she just said. His face was really surprised. "Cody, are you okay?" Bailey asked. "Bailey, I don't know what to say", he said. "If you're not ready, then it's alright", she considered. Just as Bailey was closing the box, Cody prevented her. He got the ring from the box and placed it to Bailey. "Yes", he whispered. They both smiled. They kissed and hugged. The crowd was clapping.

Back at their apartment:

They went to the living room and called Bailey's parents.

Eunice: Hello?

Bailey: Guess what happened awhile ago

Eunice: Cody accepted it?

Cody: Hi Mom

Eunice: Congratulations! Clyde, Bailey's on the phone

Clyde: Hey pumpkin, I'm so happy for you

Bailey: Thanks dad

Clyde: Where's Cody?

Cody: I'm right here, Mr. Pickett

Clyde: I don't want you to call me Mr. Pickett! (In a strong tone)

Cody: I'm sorry sir

Clyde: Call me your new daddy

Cody: Thank you Mr. Pickett. I mean Dad

Bailey: Well, we have to go now. We need to spread this to our friends

Eunice: Good luck, honey

End of Conversation

After calling her parents, they called Cody family and their friends.

A month before the wedding:

At Boston Hospital:

Bailey got out of the operating room and started walking towards her office. "Doctor Pickett!" her friend called her. "Have you finished the presentation for tomorrow?" "Yes, of course", Bailey responded. "The boss says that she wants to talk to you after the presentation", she informed. "Thanks for reminding me", she said. She noticed Cody waiting outside the hospital. "I need to go. He's waiting for me", she excused and left.

Outside the hospital:

Cody opened the door for her. "Thanks sweetie", she said and kissed his cheek. While walking, they talked. "Sweetie, I got a call from our wedding planner. She said that we should come tomorrow to check if there are still needed to be changed", he explained. "Ok", she replied. "What did you do when I'm working?" she asked. "Great. I have a scheduled interview after our wedding so that I could have a job", he told her. "Are you sure you're ready to have a job?" she asked. "Yes, I'm ready. I want to forget what happened two years ago", he declared. "If that's what you want, I'll respect it", she said "I appreciate it, Sweetie", he said happily. He held her hand and they went inside their apartment. ToBeContinued.
