Birds chirping, their melodious voices singing morning glory, the fresh and cool air after the heavy rain last night, the rising sun over the horizon, it was one of the finest day for Amanda Jackson, but she was just too lazy to wake up.

She lazily stretched her hands out as she smiled lazily at the beam of light passing through the window into her room. Today was such a fine day because everything that was going to happen today will be the best that has ever happened to her over the past few years. 

Her fiance was finally coming back from overseas and Amanda was a little bit nervous because she didn't know how to face him after not seeing him for the last five years or so. 

But why would she be nervous. After all they have grown up together. She chided herself for thinking too much.

"Amanda, why are you still lazing around? You need to start getting prepared. Today Jason is coming back, you know that apart from welcoming him, you are also getting engaged, right?" Her mom's angry voice came from the corridor.

"Okay mom, I will be out in a minute, don't worry." Amanda groaned as she answered her mom.

Her family and Jason's family had know each other since a long time ago. She had grown up with Jason and they could be considered childhood friends or rather sweethearts.

Her mom and Jason's mom were best friends for so many years and they so happened to be pregnant at the same time, they had joked about bethroting their children if one gave birth to a boy and the other a girl. Their families did not oppose because that will help keep the relationship of the two families strong.
