Fifteen
CalligraphyPreparations were quick, Sana and Jeongyeon picking out what they liked most from the traditional decor. Sana was busy being fitted for her own gown, smiling to herself as she thought of her own special day. Then the sad reminder that her mother wasn’t there creeped into her head. She let out a small sigh, knowing that she couldn’t just wish for her to be there anymore. At least she knew she was watching her from above and with her in spirit.
“Do I have to wear a dress?” Jeongyeon frowned. “Can I wear a suit?” She asked quietly.
