ELOUISE
“I can’t believe you are getting married to Mr. Rich Hottie, and I’m
going to be left the old spinster schoolteacher that lives with ten cats
for the rest of my life.” Hands on my hips, I watch my best friend Tori
being measured for the wedding dress of the century.
It’s what happens when you’re marrying a guy where money is no
object. I’m still shaking my head trying to process what the last twelve
months have been. Tori falling in love, though with a few bumps along the
way, before ending up with the love of her life and now planning a wedding
in Australia. They only got engaged a month ago, but Nic doesn’t want to
wait forever, so the planning has begun for a summer wedding in Australia
early next year.
Like, what the actual hell is her life.
The only reason I have ever managed to leave the country is because her
husband-to-be flew me to Rome as a Christmas surprise for her. And now I
get to fly to Australia to be her bridesmaid.
We were just two twenty-six-year-old women living our middle-class
existence. Maybe I should have dreamed bigger, like Tori did. Her dreams
of traveling the world had the universe delivering an extremely sexy older
man right into her lap, who just happens to own one of the biggest hotel
chains in Europe. I don’t think traveling will be a problem going forward.
Am I happy for her? Absolutely, but there is always a nagging tinge of
jealousy there, and it has nothing to do with Nic’s money, but just having a
man to share her life with.
Instead, stupid me is still sitting here single, living in my same little
house, working my same day job in a small district school, teaching little
kids the same things, year in year out.
But to be honest, I do love my job. Working with five-year-olds who are
just discovering the world of learning is so uplifting some days. When they
finally manage to read a whole book on their own and are almost bursting
with excitement, it rubs off on me too. Most of the kids come from homes
where both parents are working, so they don’t have a lot of time to read
with them. Teaching them to do it on their own is the first big hurdle in life
that will allow them to work toward their dreams.
