Chapter 271: Hannah

December, 2019

Michelle and Carla grinned at her in matching bright purple dresses, the halter-neck style making both of them look like a million bucks.

"Thanks for everything, you guys," Hannah said tearfully, dabbing carefully at the corners of her eyes. After all of the hard work that Carla had done on her makeup, she couldn't cry it all away. "I can't believe I'm the first one to leave our little club. Who's going to be the secretary of the Early Spinster's Club now?"

"It's your wedding day," Michelle said bluntly. "You've got better things to worry about. Like how handsome that man of yours is lookin', out in the chapel, waiting for you up at the altar."

Hannah carefully hugged Michelle, and then Carla. "You're right, but...this never would've happened without you two. Thank you both for forcing me to be braver than I ever thought I could be."
