The days leading to their wedding felt strangely calm, as if the world decided to give the two of them a quiet blessing before everything turned uncertain again.
Cassius genuinely wanted something grand. He even suggested an elegant venue, hundreds of guests, and a ceremony that would make headlines. But Kendrick and Zephany only smiled and shook their heads. With everything they had gone through, they did not need extravagance. They only wanted sincerity, warmth, and the people who truly mattered.
So the wedding was simple. Soft white drapes, a cozy garden venue, sunlight filtering gently through the leaves, and rows of chairs filled only by family and the closest friends. Christy cried the moment she saw Zephany walking down the aisle. Even though it was small, the moment still felt overwhelming.
