A little help here?

From what Penny knew, Hugo's reason for this grand bachelor party was to keep her from attending Ray's oath-taking. Her brother made an effort and even took money out of his own pocket just to make things go his way.

So, in a way, Penny was disheartened to see the very guy her brother wanted her to avoid.

"Hi, Penny~! Let's get married."

The rest of her thoughts disappeared upon hearing such a ridiculous opening. "Ray?"

Just as she remembered him, Ray still had a small portion of his white natural hair on the side. It was brushed neatly along with his black hair. He was wearing thin-framed glasses, which quite suited his small face. He was taller than she remembered, but still petite. Apart from that, Penny noticed the formal wear he was donning.

'Don't tell me he came here after his oath-taking ceremony?' she wondered, but deep in her heart, she had a guess.
