Love, Rosie (280 page)

Buttercup:
Why
did
he
keep
on
as
normal?
I
remember
him
asking
about
a
letter
and
I
told
him
I
didn’t
get
it.
Why
didn’t
he
just
tell
me
then?
Wildflower:
SureOne:
Buttercup:
LonelyLady:
He
could
have
chickened
out.
Or
he
saw
that
you
were
in
love
with
your
husband.
This
is
all
very
confusing.
LonelyLady,
you’ve
been
very
quiet.
What
do
you
think?
Well
I
of
all
people
know
what
it’s
like
to
feel
all
alone
and
there
were
times
that
I
thought
I
would
do
just
about
anything
to
find
love,
but
SureOne
has
put
it
into
perspective.
Knowing
the
hurt
she
has
gone
through,
I
wouldn’t
look
for
my
own
happiness
at
the
expense
of
others.
I
would
carry
on
as
nor-
mal,
as
though
nothing
had
happened.
Wildflower:
You
3
are
unbelievable.
Learn
to
live
a
little.
Do
unto
others
as
others
have
done
to
you.
You
have
all
been
screwed
with
by
people.
love,
rosie

Yes
we
have
and
as
much
as
I
don’t
like
Bethany
she
has
never
done
anything
to
hurt
me.
Apart
from
marrying
Alex.
I
don’t
own
Alex.
But
you
could.
People
can
never
own
people
but
whether
I
can
be
with
him
or
not
right
now,
the
answer
is
no.
Not
now.
Maybe
in
another
time.

Ah
don’t
tell
me
you’re
through
a
divorce
yourself
Father?
Don’t
be
silly
Wildflower,
have
a
bit
of
respect!
He’s
here
for
the
ceremony.
I
know
that.
I
was
just
trying
to
lighten
the
atmosphere.
So
have
the
loving
couple
arrived
yet?
No
but
it’s
customary
for
the
bride
to
be
late.
Well
is
the
groom
here?
SingleSam
has
entered
the
room
Wildflower:
Here
he
is
now.
Hello
there
SingleSam.
I
think
this
is
the
first
time
ever
that
both
the
bride
and
groom
will
have
to
change
their
names.

SureOne:
Hello
all.
Where’s
the
bride?
Probably
fixing
her
makeup.
Oh
don’t
be
silly.
No
one
can
even
see
her.
SingleSam
can
see
her.
She’s
not
doing
her
makeup;
she’s
supposed
to
keep
the
groom
waiting.
No
she’s
right
here
on
the
laptop
beside
me.
She’s
just
hav-
ing
problems
with
her
password
logging
in.
Doomed
from
the
start.
