Emma: looks down, hands trembling I can't believe it! My fiancé... our boss... he's my brother?!
CrystalLagoon
picks up Emma's phone When’s the wedding?
sniffs, wiping away tears The wedding... it's scheduled for next week! Can you believe it? I'm marrying my own brother without even realizing it!
CrystalLagoon
when I’m back from military service
gulps, trying to compose herself C-Crystal, are you serious? You're coming back home?
CrystalLagoon

clutches her chest, overwhelmed with relief Oh, thank God! I've missed you so much, Crystal.
CrystalLagoon
hugs Emma hey don’t cry
sniffles I can't help it, Crystal! I've been so lost without you. But now that you're coming back... maybe things will finally make sense again.
CrystalLagoon
well let’s see what kind of mess we can get into
laughs through her tears Oh, Crystal, you know us too well! We always seem to find ourselves in the most chaotic situations.
CrystalLagoon
smiles ok well I’m gonna head back to base
wipes away her tears, determined No, Crystal! I can't let you go back to base just yet! We need to figure this out together!
CrystalLagoon
figure what out?
grabs Crystal's arm, pulling her towards the desk We need to come up with a plan! A plan to cancel the wedding and expose the truth!
CrystalLagoon
sighs ok I’m in
starts rummaging through her desk drawers, searching for any evidence We need proof, Crystal! Proof that this wedding is a sham!
CrystalLagoon
finds a letter from the boss admitting it was all a bet
gasps, eyes widening as she reads the letter This... this is perfect evidence, Crystal! We have to show this to everyone!
CrystalLagoon
nods and opens the door to leave
quickly grabs a stack of copies, making sure to distribute them evenly between themselves and Crystal
CrystalLagoon
puts 10 copies in my backpack let’s go
Emma and Crystal distribute the evidence throughout the office, causing an uprostry among their coworkers. The boss is forced to address the situation and admits that the wedding was a sham. Emma and Crystal are hailed as heroes for exposing the truth and paving the way for the true love to prevail.
CrystalLagoon
waits outside the office
rushes out of the office, holding Crystal's hand Crystal, can you believe it? We did it! We exposed the truth and brought down the deceitful wedding!
CrystalLagoon
hey you know I’ll always be there for you right
takes a deep breath, mustering up her courage Crystal, there's something I need to tell you. It's about my brother...the boss.
CrystalLagoon
yea I remember him
pauses, looking around nervously Crystal, the truth is...my brother hasn't been himself lately. He's been acting strange and secretive.
CrystalLagoon
well he was in an accident 2 years ago and almost died
gasps, gripping Crystal's arm tightly What? An accident? Two years ago? Why didn't anyone tell me? Is that why he's been so distant?
CrystalLagoon
yeah
looks determined Crystal, we need to find out more about his condition. We can't let him suffer alone anymore.
CrystalLagoon
I agree
starts researching on their computer, typing furiously We need to gather as much information as possible.
CrystalLagoon
after 2 hours of research nothing new
sighs heavily, feeling defeated Crystal, I don't know what to do. We've hit a dead end in our research.
CrystalLagoon
let’s ask his doctor
grabs their phone and dials the doctor's number, speaking urgently Hello, this is Emma.
CrystalLagoon
sits in the car listening
pauses, absorbing the information Thank you, Doctor. This means a lot. We'll make sure to take care of him. Doctor: calmly Of course, Emma. Just remember, it's important for him to have a strong support system during this time.
CrystalLagoon
well I got to go to my dorm
looks at Crystal with determination Crystal, before you go, let's make a pact. Let's promise to always be there for each other and for my brother.
CrystalLagoon
I promise
extends their pinky finger towards Crystal Pinky promise? I promise. locks their pinkies together Crystal, let's do everything we can to help my brother heal.
CrystalLagoon
smiles and kisses her
pulls away, blushing Uh, Crystal, maybe we should hold off on the kissing for now. We don't want people getting the wrong idea, do we?
CrystalLagoon
ok giggles
nods, feeling a mix of embarrassment and relief Good. We must be professional in our mission to help my brother. Now, let's plan our next steps. Crystal, I think we should visit him at the hospital tomorrow morning. We can bring him some flowers and maybe a book or something to cheer him up. What do you say?
