Question for the day: how many times I've used the sentence "get a grip?"

"A freaking marriage?" Hannah's eyes widened in disbelief.

I nodded, taking a deep breath. "My parents and Christian's grandma decided to set us up."

Sarah's concerned gaze met mine. "You're not joking, right?"

I shook my head, explaining the situation. Internally, I was ecstatic, but a part of me trembled at the thought of Christian's potential rejection.

"Are you okay?" Amelia asked, noticing my unease.

"I'm nervous," I admitted. "What if he doesn't agree?"

Hannah chimed in, "Men aren't that hard to figure out. Just seduce him, and he'll be hooked in no time!"

We exchanged skeptical glances. Amelia reassured me, "Don't worry, your parents said they'll give you time. If it doesn't work out, you can always leave."

The conversation shifted to our upcoming party plans.

"I have to attend the S&D fashion debut success party today," Amelia said.

"Me too!" Sarah exclaimed. "Sebastian invited me."

"I'm going as well," I added, my cheeks flushing. "I, uh, stole the invitation from Christian."

Hannah's eyes sparkled. "I'm invited too! Noah asked me."

Our jaws dropped in unison. "WHAT?!"

Hannah defended, "I did an amazing job, and he appreciated it!"

"So you are his good girl aren't you?", I asked her teasingly. "If you said that again, I'll throw your snow bear out in the street". Hannah warned.

"Try doing it and you will no longer see Kim taehyung in your freaking bedroom". I retorted back.

"Stop it and focus on dressing up for today's party, we need to look hella hot". Amelia said swinging her hips.

Soon we get busy in finding our perfect dresses.
