FIVE AND A HALF YEARS AGO
TREY 5:56 PM
NOTHING’S WORSE than being double booked.
Except for maybe a root canal. That’s pretty bad.
But honestly, who puts an engagement party on the same night as the
Super Bowl?
Haji does.
Because Haji and his fiancée don’t care about football, or funny
commercials, or halftime shows.
When I told him last Friday that I’d love to come to his party and meet
his fiancée, Izzy, I wasn’t thinking that it would be at the same time as the
biggest game in the NFL. I thought it would be, like, a Sunday brunch or
something. So imagine my panic when I got his text last night with the
address to Izzy’s parents’ house and the 6:00 PM start time.
I couldn’t cancel. Haji’s my only non-football friend—my study partner
for the last two years. He’s the reason that I passed physics. I couldn’t not
come to his engagement party, especially after I already said I would be
there. So I’m forfeiting the pre-game show for friendship.
I climb the front steps to Izzy’s parents’ house and straighten my tie and
suit jacket before I knock on the oversized wood door. The house is nice—a
white, stone two-story ten minutes away from the University of Alabama
campus. Convenient since I plan to be in and out and back at my apartment
by 6:30 PM to watch the kick-off with some of my teammates. I’m even
arriving a few minutes early for an extra buffer.
It’s the perfect plan. I’m showing my face, meeting Haji’s fiancée,
eating a few hors d’oeuvres, and then getting the heck out of here.
The door swings open. “You must be Trey!” A petite woman with dirtyblonde hair smiles at me. She’s wearing a floral dress with a pink sweater
tied around her neck like she’s some kind of Stepford wife. She grabs my
hand, pulling me inside. “Haji’s told me so much about you. Plus, I saw you
on TV a few weeks ago in that bowl game.”
“I’m guessing you’re Izzy.”
“Yes, sorry.” She offers her hand.
“Haji talks about you nonstop. It’s nice to finally meet you.”
Her smile widens. “Well, I hope so.”
I look around at the house and the few guests that have already arrived.
It’s a small crowd, which makes my leaving early harder.
“I’m so glad you came. It’ll mean so much to Haji.” She leans in as if
she’s going to tell me a secret. “Hardly any of his friends and family are
coming tonight. They’re still trying to get used to the idea of an interfaith
marriage.”
