Your boss, Harry Castillo was a powerful, confident man. But to lose his girlfriend right after he proposed, he was the worst you’d ever seen him. One morning you toss through his mail, when you come across an invitation.

”To: Harry Castillo & Guest, you are cordially invited to the celebration of Lucy M and John P.”

Once you informed him he swallowed his pride and arranged a wedding gift, accommodations and a flight. You knew he didn’t want to go alone, but it was a surprise that he asked his assistant, you, of all people and single women he knew.

You agreed, and knew you’d be doing him a favor. Sending his black card with you to choose a new dress, and taking you with him on his jet.

You had gotten dressed, in a designer dress and heels that you never could have afforded on your own. Grabbing your clutch and taking the elevator to the ground floor. He was right there, sipping on a whiskey beat. His eyes double taking at you, and smiling and offering you his arm. This all felt too real.

After the limo took you to the venue, you walked in. You felt like a fish out of water, noticing everyone looking at the two of you. “The ex!” One whispered to another.

“Harry..” you whispered to him. “Relax…they’re only looking at you because they’re jealous.” He whispered back.
