Minna had enjoyed the wedding. It was simple and lovely. Minna was a bit envious that Brent finally got his 'happy ever after'. Then she saw him at the corner of her eye. She wanted to ignore him but she couldn't Aiden told her to be nice and that she should at least say hi or congratulate him. She sighed and went over.
"Hello McKi--Brent. Congratulations and I do hope you live happily now." she meant what she said. Even if she said in an a volume that Merlin know if Brent even heard. But it was loud enough.

Minna felt a bit awkward. This was the first time that she was talking to Brent without either throwing a hex or an insult at him. She tried to smile at him. "I'm sure you will. Chase is a good man. Treat him well and he shall do the same to you." she said as he turned to look at Chase who was happily talking to the other guests. "Remember when I told you I envied you? That you were lucky? I still do envy you, even more so now." she told Brent.
She turned to look at him. "I'm sure it wouldn't have worked out with you and Aiden. But the guy his with is the perfect one for him. Just like how Chase is perfect for you. You both should come over my place sometime. I can make you chocolate cake with a hint of liquore in it. Aiden likes it and I never got the chance to make one for Chase since I invited him once on short notice." she smiled at Brent.
"Though I have to make sure Maryn isn't at home when you both come. Come to think about it, she hasn't come home at all. It's been a month or so... I've been worried but Chase said that Maryn must be fine and just wanted space. But she hasn't owled or fire called or anything... Have you heard from her?" she asked him in concern. Maryn was her best friend. Minna would worry a lot.

Minna's heart sank. Where could Maryn be? She sighed and looked down. "Well, don't worry about it for now. Its your wedding day after all... But your right, this isn't like Maryn to be gone for so long. I just hope she's alright." Minna told Brent.
she tried to smile again, "I hope you won't mind the gifts we brought for you and Chase. Aiden insisted that he give it to you to enjoy your honeymoon." she said with a big smile. She took out a small envelope that contained a check worth ten thousand galleons. "And this is my gift to you. I hope you don't mind... I'm not really good with gifts really." she said as she placed the envelope in Brent's hands.

Minna nodded and smiled at Brent. "I'm sure Brent. Use it wisely, mind you. You have a family now. I a look forward to be teaching you brother, Tommy soon. His such an adorable little boy." she said and smiled.
she looked around and wondered where Aiden was. She thought she saw him but then Aiden would have approached them, right?
Then she turned back to Brent, "As I was saying, I'm sure Chase won't mind... Well, I hope not that is..." she said with a chuckle.

Aiden was in one corner, talking to a man that was out of view from everyone else. He didn't even notice that he was near Brent and Minna.
"Are you sure about this? Was it really her body they found?" Aiden asked and the unknown man answered. "Alright then... I have to find a way to tell them then... this won;t be easy mind you... there was just a wedding and now I bring bad news..." Aiden said and sighed.
the man a few more things which shocked Aiden, "What?!" he hissed. "What do you men Maryn Lovegood's murder has no leads?" he asked. Aiden knew that it was Jackie but Aiden had to play his part well.

[/i] body? He glanced over at Minna, clearly worried by the possibility that his ex-wife's corpse had been found. He wondered if Minna had heard and thought of Maryn too. He heard the words 'Maryn Lovegood's murder' loud and clear, he was certain that's what Aiden had said... but... Brent still didn't know if it was true. He didn't want to believe that it was true. "M-Murph?" he stammered out, knowing he was only going to believe this if Aiden confirmed it.[/color][/ul]

Minna's eyes widen in horror. Did she just hear Aiden right? Maryn's dead? She spun around and stared at Aiden. "A-aiden... Tell me I heard wrong... Tell me you didn't say what you just said!" she said as she grabbed the collar of his robes. This can't be happening right? Yes, this was a terrible joke!
"Maryn is NOT dead! She just away for the meantime! To clear her head! She's not dead!" she screamed as she cried in Aiden's chest! "Tell me your lying, Aiden.... Please tell me your lying..." Minna begged. This was too much for her.

Aiden turned to see Brent and Minna behind him. They were in a state of shock. Brent most of all. He just heard that his ex-wife was dead. "Brent... Minna... I was meaning to tell you both... But not until I got all the news... Until I got enough proof..." he told them as he held on to Minna was was crying.
"I didn't want to tell you here... Not today even... I... I'm sorry..." Aiden said as he knew that all eyes were on them now. He really had bad timing. He isghed in frustration as Minna broke into piece in front of him. "Minnie.. Come on..." he said as she held her up.

[/i] lie to me!" He knew it was true, but he still didn't want to believe it at all. It was just... wrong. Maryn couldn't die. She couldn't leave him, especially before he'd had a proper chance to try and be her friend. This was his fault. If he hadn't cheated, if they hadn't gotten divorced, they would still be together. It was the same with his parents, if he hadn't left them, they would still be alive too. What about Chase? He was probably going to end up dead because of him too for all Brent knew. All of this... it was too much. And at his wedding as well. He fell to the ground as his knees gave with beneath him.. no.. this wasn't really happening was it? It couldn't be... but it was. And there was Brent was knelt in the sand, shaking and sobbing into his arm. No, he wasn't making a scene out of this at all.[/color][/ul]

Minna felt like the world just crashed down on her. Maryn, her best friend, was dead. How long? Since Maryn has left Minna's house that day and said she had things to do? When? She wanted to know. She wanted to know who the culprit was.
She held on to Aiden for support but when she saw Brent, she she tugged Aiden to help Brent. "Go on... Take care of Brent. I can take care of myself. Bring him to Chase. Everyone's already staring." she told Aiden as she made her way to the nearest chair and sat down. Who would have thought that on a beautiful day, on a wedding day, she'd be mourning for a lost of a long time friend.
