[5 Years Later]
It was an autumn afternoon, the scenery in the Willowcombe countryside painted in hues of yellow, orange, and
brown. Today, after being postponed for several years, Peter would finally marry Celeste. Their daughters, now
just over five years old, would serve as little bridesmaids and carry the train of their mom's dress.
In a simple, intimate, and beautiful ceremony, the couple—who had learned to love through adversity-would
finally unite their lives before God.
This would be the first tin five years that the whole family would be reunited. Even Lucius and his daughter,
who had been away, had confirmed their attendance.
Peter had invited Marcus; however, he understood how uncomfortable it might be for his friend's wife. Even
though there were few memories left, it was clear that something had once happened between them, so Peter
gladly accepted his congratulations from afar.
"How are you?" Maximus asked, adjusting the boutonniére on his brother's black tuxedo.
"Nervous!" Peter said honestly.
"You? Nervous?" Maximus asked, surprised.
"Hey! This is my first and only wedding. What do you expect?" Peter replied, straightening his bow tie.
"Okay, okay, fair enough! But I'm sure everything will be perfect... It's crazy to think that today, you're finally
getting married. So many years, so many stories."
"And you? How are you feeling?" Peter asked, noticing how tired his brother looked.
"I'm okay... | think what's makingnervous is seeing my son again..."
"| figured as much. Lucius's doing fine. Little Amanda too-she's a smart, brave girl."
"Lucius says she's a lot like her mom," Maximus said, remembering their occasional video calls.

"Physically or in personality?"
"Both... But anyway, today is your day. | won't bring it down with my stuff."
"Thanks, Maximus."
"Why are you thanking me?" Maximus asked curiously.
"For being here, for being my brother, for everything we've been through together..."
"Life gave us a second chance, and | think we've made the most of it."
"Yeah, | suppose we're a bit less idiotic than we used to be."
"Well, at least we're less idiotic..." Maximus said with a smirk.
"Let's not forget we're not fifteen anymore..."
"Oh, | realized that years ago..."
"So... what do you think Celeste thought of the surprise?" Peter asked, glancing at himself in the mirror again.
"I think she loved it-though honestly, | have no idea how you pulled all of this
off."
"In my spare time, and with help

said, shrugging.
In the bridal suite, Celeste stood in front of the mirror, still stunned. How had Peter

"How are you, Celeste? Is everything okay? Do you need help with anything?" Aria asked as she entered the
room.
"Oh, yes! | just need help with the veil," Celeste said, showing her the mantilla laid out on the bed.
Aria smiled, picked it up, and gently secured it in her hair along with the tiara she and Peter had chosen
together.
"You look beautiful, Celeste! My son is going to be floored when he sees you."
