cyrek and stella's wedding, june 10 @nxnbinarydracvla
it had been odd for her to receive an invitation considering she wasn't on good terms with stella or cyrek but for whatever reason, josette had turned up to the occasion. the woman did clean up pretty well, dressed smartly in her new attire but she'd already lost before she even came. with nearly a whole bottle of wine in her system, she was starting off tipsy as she helped herself to more alcohol. being here didn't make her feel good though. this was matthew's child, someone she'd loved and got little back in return (they would argue that she got the karma that was coming to her for destroying a family and not upholding her duty of care). jo wasn't over matthew, perhaps she thought that he could make an appearance, or that he had invited her? whenever he was concerned, her mind became scrambled. she wasn't over him, their daughter, what she'd done and it was evident from the guilty look she had on her face. whether it was a desperate plea for forgiveness or a genuine thought, the woman pushed herself up, hoisting her glass into the air but swaying slightly as she did so. "i would like to say a few words." she nodded towards whoever was looking at her before turning her attention to stella and cyrek. "i wanted to give a toast to the happy couple. i know it hasn't been easy." she shook her head. "-but you have found love despite everything and i think that's a wonderful thing to have." not even jo knew where she was going with this...
