Two Best Friends, One Man
Episode 3
The scene opened with a vibrant birthday party, celebrating Dave Junior’s 3rd birthday. Dave, Isabella, her parents, and close friends were all in attendance, beaming with joy. Colorful balloons and streamers filled the room, and a big banner read “Happy 3rd Birthday Dave Junior!” As they sang “Happy Birthday,” Dave Junior’s face lit up with excitement, his eyes sparkling with delight.
Amidst the festivities, Dave took a moment to pull out a small box, revealing a stunning engagement ring. He got down on one knee, his eyes locked on Isabella’s, and proposed.
The room fell silent, with all eyes on Isabella. She looked at him with a mix of surprise and hesitation, her hands trembling. “Dave, I…I can’t accept this,” she stammered. “Jessica is still out there, and she’s my best friend. What if she finds out?” What would she think of me?
Dave’s expression was understanding, but he gently persuaded her. “Isabella, Jessica is my past. You are my present and future. I love you, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you.” Her parents and friends echoed their support, encouraging her to accept the proposal.
Dave Junior, with his innocent eyes, added his own plea. “Mummy, please say yes! We want you to be happy!” The room erupted in applause as Isabella finally accepted the ring. Dave rose to his feet, and they shared a tender embrace.
After the birthday party, Isabella still looked concerned, but Dave Junior’s gentle touch brought a smile to her face. “Mummy, smile please,” he said, and she hugged him tightly.
Sometime later, Dave and Isabella tied the knot in an exclusive, intimate ceremony. Surrounded by loved ones, they exchanged vows, promising a lifetime of love and commitment. As they danced their first dance as husband and wife, the room was filled with joy and celebration.
Juliet went to Henry’s office to s3duce him, but he pushed her away, insult!ngly asking how she could think of s3ducing her friend’s soon-to-be husband! “I truly love you, Henry,” Juliet replied, “but Jessica only loves your money, not you! She abandoned her baby just weeks after giving birth and her man because he was poor – is that the kind of person you want to marry?”
Henry was surprised and accused Juliet of lying, but she shot back, “If you think I’m lying, then go and confront Jessica – you’ll know the truth!” With that, she stormed out of his office.
After Juliet left, Henry’s mind was racing with worry, and he decided to leave the office and confront Jessica at home. When he arrived, Jessica welcomed him, but he told her not to touch him until she answered his questions. “Have you given birth before?” he asked sternly. “Why are you asking?” she replied, stalling. “Just give me a yes or no answer!” Henry demanded. She hesitated before saying yes.
Henry then asked, “Did you leave your ex because he was poor?” She tried to avoid the question, but Henry shouted at her until she finally admitted, “Yes!”
Henry was furious! “So, it means you’re with me only for my money! If I go broke, you’ll abandon me too, just like you abandoned your newly born baby!” he exclaimed. “Jessica, you have no place in my house and life!” With that, Henry went inside, threw her belongings out, and pushed her away, ignoring her pleas.
Jessica was left outside for hours, eventually deciding to go to a hotel to stay. But when she tried to use her ATM cards, she discovered they didn’t work! With no other choice, she decided to call Isabella’s number.
