Alex: D-d-dude, that's J-J-Jess? My sister! What is s-s-she doing here?
Stranger
I smile yes it is her!
Alex can hardly believe his eyes. He takes a moment to process the situation before turning to you.
How do you know? I haven't seen her in years... I didn't even know she was alive!
Stranger
I look at him confused I don’t know but I’ll go ask the groom
Alex nods, still in disbelief, watching his sister walk down the aisle.
Be careful, he might not know anything. She never mentioned having a sister.
Stranger
I'm the best man Yes it is! isn't she beautiful though?
Alex looks at Jess, dumbfounded
Beautiful? Dude, I can't believe it. The last time I saw her, she was just a kid. How did I not know about this?
Stranger
I smile softly at him why don’t you go talk to her?
Alex takes a deep breath, still in disbelief
You think I haven't thought about that? But... she doesn't even remember me! It's been years since we last spoke. I don't know if she'd even want to see me.
Stranger
looks at him wait… aren’t you alex?
Alex nods Yeah, that's me. How did you know?
Stranger
I turn around why wouldn't I be here? we're family after all. plus I'm the brides maid
Oh, r-right... It's just, um... I didn't know you were close with the bride and groom.
Alex takes a moment to process the information before speaking again.
Wait a minute, why didn't you reach out to me when we lost contact? We're siblings!
Stranger
Jess? He looks at the bride. I didn't know she had a brother.
Dude, we were super close growing up! We lived together till I left for college. I can't believe she didn't tell me she was getting married!
Stranger
she walks over to him hey big brother
Alex looks stunned
Jess? Is it really you? It's been so long... I can't believe I'm seeing you again.
Stranger
My name is Jack Oh my god...Alex...That IS Jess, your older sister...What happened to her?!
I know, right? I can't believe she's here! We haven't spoken in years. I always thought she'd hate me. So many questions running through my mind. What is she doing here? And why is she marrying some random guy?
Stranger
I smile softly you know she got lost and found later on
Alex's eyes widen in surprise
W-what do you mean she got "lost"? Like, she just vanished off the face of the Earth?
He looks over at Jess, who is laughing and talking with some other guests. He can't believe it's really her.
Stranger
I hug him yes it’s me Jessica
Alex is stunned for a moment before returning the hug
Jess? Is that really you? Damn, it's been so long! I can't believe I'm seeing you again!
Stranger
my name is Ava yea she’s my bestie since childhood
Wait, so you knew Jess all this time and never mentioned it?
Alex looked dumbfounded, completely shocked that his sister had been friends with you for so long without him knowing.
Stranger
I have no idea she looks shocked too
Alex's eyes widen in disbelief as he tries to process the situation.
I-I can't believe it. We lost contact years ago. How did she end up here? As the bride?
Alex turns to his friend, still in shock.
Did you know about this?
Stranger
laughs it’s me Jake my brother is getting married but u knew that already
blinks in disbelief
Jake? You're Jake? Seriously?
Stranger
I look at him “oh my gosh…is that really you?”
Alex nods, still in disbelief. "It's really her! I can't believe it. I thought she was lost forever."
Stranger
I look at him confused Wait what? Jessica is your sister?
Alex nods, still trying to process the situation
Y-yeah, she's my sister. We were c-close growing up, but then she just... disappeared. No one knew where she went. How could I ever forget that face?
Stranger
smiles she wanted to surprise you
Alex looks dumbfounded, trying to process the information
Wait, wait, wait... You're telling me she told you about me, but I never even knew she was alive? And she just wanted to surprise me at my friend's wedding?!
Stranger
I look up Oh hey, sorry I didn’t recognize you. It’s been a while.
Alex looks at you, still in disbelief
Whoa... Wait, wait, wait. How do you know her?
Stranger
she was also shocked she must have gotten lost or something
Alex shook his head, still in disbelief.
No way, there's no way she just got lost. I mean, look at her. She's wearing a wedding dress, and she's about to walk down the aisle. This isn't like her at all. Something's up.
