to the restaurant. It was an expensive sushi place; located right in the heart of the city, a place that William had never taken me before. William drove our SUV up to the front and a valet attendant opened the passenger door for me.
    “Good evening, Ma’am,” he said, motioning for me to step outside.
    I smiled and nodded, doing my best to hide my nervousness. William stepped out of the car and approached me from the side, taking my hand and squeezing it affectionately.
    “You ready, baby?” he asked.
    I looked through the windows of the building ahead of us. It was completely packed with people and I immediately recognized a few faces.
    “Wow, did they rent out the entire restaurant?” I asked. “This place is packed and I’m guessing that most of these people are here for the reunion.”
    William started walking and I hesitated at first. I practically wanted to turn back. High school only reminded me of Alex and any thought of Alex only brought pain and confusion.
    “Come on, honey,” William said, pulling on my hand.
    I faked a smile and nodded.
    “Yeah, let’s get in there,” I said, with nervousness in my voice.
    I followed William’s lead to the front door and we stepped inside. To the left, the restaurant had put together numerous tables, in order to accommodate our reunion. We didn’t even have a chance to be greeted by the hostess before I heard a familiar voice call out from the crowd of people.
    “Lindsey!” the girl’s voice said, shrieking above the noise of the restaurant. “Oh, my God, Lindsey.”
    I glanced over, to see my old best friend, Dana, waving frantically from across the room in an effort to get my attention. It put a smile on my face immediately and I dropped William’s hand to run up and give her a hug.
    “Eeeeek!” she squealed, as we embraced, squeezing each other tightly.
    I held her for a moment and then pulled away, looking her over.
    “My God, Dana,” I said. “You haven’t aged a minute since graduation.”
    Dana rolled her eyes and then playfully punched me on the shoulder.
    “Whatever,” she said, jokingly. “You’re trying to tell me that three kids didn’t change me?”
    My eyes widened in response.
    “You have three kids?” I asked. “That’s so awesome, Dana! I have a little one of my own! We have so much catching up to do.”
    Dana nodded in agreement and then grabbed my hand. She then looked behind me to where William was standing.
    “Where’s Alex?” Dana whispered. “I thought for sure you’d be here with Alex.”
    I shrugged my shoulders.
    “I haven’t seen Alex since my sophomore year of college,” I responded. “He left for war and nobody has heard from his since.”
    Dana’s face turned pale.
    “You’re kidding me,” she said quietly, trying to keep William from hearing. “I thought you guys would be together forever.”
    I nodded slowly.
    “You’re not the only one,” I said. “But things happen and sometimes life is bigger than we are, you know? Besides, my life is actually pretty amazing. Speaking of which, I want to introduce you to my husband, William.”
    I turned around and motioned William to step close to me. He approached Dana and held out his hand.
    “Dana, this is William,” I said. “We met in college and have been happily married with one kiddo ever since.”
    They shook hands, a confused look still on Dana’s face. She was in total shock and I was sure that a lot of people would respond the same way when they found out that Alex and I were no longer together.
    “Good to meet you, Dana,” William said. “It’s nice to meet one of Lindsey’s friends from her youth. She talks so much about her high school days and it’s nice to be able to put a face to a name.”
    Dana smiled and nodded in agreement.
    “Definitely,” she said. “It’s nice to meet you also, William. Now, let’s get to the party.”
    Dana then grabbed my hand and pulled me into the crowd of people that were surrounding the tables in
