Julian’s gaze was regretful “Forgive me Molly. I did not realize I hurt you so.”
She raised her hands to his lips “Shhh, that is in the past and this is the future. That is all that matters and that is all that will matter. Now let’s tell our parents.”
There was no need to bother. Yolanda had already found Lionel and Belinda and broken the news. When they both showed up to kiss Julian and Molly, Yolanda was busy instructing the servants on the best way to prepare a wedding menu. “It has to be a grand, spectacular event. Call the televisions stations, the press, the marines, and the navy. Call everybody. My baby girlfriend is getting married!”
Molly laughed with delight and urged Yolanda to take things slow. “Would you please relax? Let’s take it one step at a time. Now that I have the man of my dreams, I don’t wish to scare him away. Gently, my darling. Gently.”
“I don’t think she knows the meaning of that word. That’s just the way she is… naturally.” Julian’s amused comment did not sit well with Yolanda. Sticking out her tongue she refused to look at him.
Molly gasped “Yolanda, please behave.”
Yolanda smiled sheepishly as she replied “Well all right, but promise me one thing both of you, please?”
Molly and Julian held hands as they nodded.
“Molly, I want to be your maid of honor when you tie the knot with Julian, if it’s all right with Mr. High & Mighty of course. And you know I have to be the baby’s fairy godmother, all right? Nothing else will do.”
Molly embraced Yolanda tightly and Julian embraced them both, as she whispered “I wouldn’t have it any other way.”
