CHAPTER 14
Hannah
“I am so happy for you.” I hugged my sister.
“I was so shocked, sis.”
“Good. That was the plan.” I grinned.
“You knew?”
“Maybe.” I winked. “Luis and I are throwing you and Colin an engagement party. Did you tell Mom?”
“I tried calling her, but she didn’t answer. I left her a message to call me, but she hasn’t yet. I hope she’s okay,” Adalyn said with concern.
“I’m sure she’s fine.”
“Have you heard from Alex?” she asked.
“No. I’m sure he’s busy, and when and if I do hear from him, I’ll be busy too with the shop. That’s my only priority, especially now with a wedding coming up.” I smiled. “Speaking of weddings, I want to make your wedding dress.”
“Oh, Hannah. I would love you to. Do you even have time with the shop?”
“I’ll always have time to make my sister’s wedding dress.” I hugged her. “Don’t you worry about that. I’ll sketch a few designs later.”
I went to the kitchen, grabbed my phone from the table, and dialed my mom. She didn’t answer, so I called Antonio, and he didn’t answer either. Sighing, I pulled the dishwasher open, and as I was unloading it, I heard a knock on the door. Opening it, I stood in shock when I saw my mother and Antonio standing there.
“Mom!” I hugged her. “What are you doing here?”
“A mother can’t come and visit her daughters?”
“Hi, Antonio.” I hugged him.
“Hello, sweetheart.”
“Hannah, who’s at—Mom, Antonio!” Adalyn screeched as she flew down the stairs and hugged them. “I’ve been trying to call you.”
“I know, Addy. I’m sorry I didn’t answer. We wanted to surprise you. Let me see the ring.” She grabbed her hand.
“You know?”
“Of course. Colin called and asked for my blessing. After he proposed, he called again and told us you said yes.”
“How long are you staying?” I asked her.
“I don’t know. We’re playing it by ear.” My mom smiled.
“Where are your bags?” Adalyn asked.
“We’re staying at the bed and breakfast,” Antonio said.
“Why?” Adalyn’s brows furrowed. “You always stay here.”
“Well, we figured with your sister here and you being newly engaged, you don’t need two extra people in your house.”
“Hannah’s moving out next weekend,” Adalyn said, and I shot her a look. “She’s moving in with a guy. His name is Alex.”
“What?” My mom cocked her head.
