34 - Makena

Just as her name meant, Makena was was a happy go lucky girl, her and Ceri had kept in touch and she also lived in the N city. Her love for fashion grew and she followed her heart.

She was a successful fashion designer, owned her own small clothing store where she employed several tailors that sold her designs and also custom made clothes for clients.

In three days was going to be her 'Ruracio' ceremony in the village. This is where her fiancee's family would officially visit and meet her parents, have dowry negotiations. There would be dancing, lots of food and drinks and if all went well then a traditional wedding would follow.

She was determined to defy tradition and have Ceri attend the ceremony. She wanted to folk dance, break dance, be one with the music but only with her best friend present. She wanted everyone to know that she and Ceri were still close despite the villagers outcasting her. She would one day change their view on women and abolish this backward behavior.

All in all Makena could not wait for her friend to come back from her work trip, she wanted to hear more about the handsome dark chocolate specimen Ceri had told her about. Was he married?
