Will you come when I get married?
It was the year Jason was broke as a joke. I
dumped him and took off for Europe to study.
Years later, he’s a huge movie star, and
rumors are swirling about him getting
married. In an interview, Jason, looking at no
one in particular, says, “If I get married, will
you come?” That night, he was trending all
over social media. #JasonWeddingPlans

The interview went viral. #JasonToWed

up, I’d jokingly asked him, “If you ever get
married, will you invite me?” He said yes. I
just didn’t realize it would be five years later,
with him a successful actor.
My high school group chat, usually dormant, exploded with the news. [@Jason’s getting married? To who?!] [@No clue, but it sure ain’t gonna be Lynn.] [@Remember when
someone dumped him because he was broke? Now he’s raking in millions, I wonder if she regrets it.] I scrolled through the messages, a wave of nostalgia washing over me. A friend had asked me the same thing when Jason’s career first took off. “Jason’s got a ton of fangirls now, two years later, I’m still curious,

do you regret it?” I’d laughed it off. “No
regrets. His future was more important than
