As her best friend helped her dress up for her big day, the little voice in her mind became much clearer. It felt like a massive thwack on her head and life: "When did this exclusive secret dating start to feel official? Why did his exaggerated version get stuck in my brain? Who is he? What am I doing? Do I really want this wedding to happen? Am I making a huge mistake?"
"Oh no. Oh no. I don't want to get married." She said out loud.
Her best friend realised what was happening, "Babe, relax, it is just cold feet." She smiled, "Yes, it is scary, but remember how you felt after the first date with him? Yes, he is the one. You cannot wait to spend the rest of your clumsy life with him."
Her reassurance somehow calmed her nerves. Their first date came to her mind. The times when he went out of his way to declare his love came rushing in. Her mind attained peace.
"You are right." She smiled and pulled her for a hug.
That's how a best friend saves the day. Best friends are superheroes.
