Wedding Day Blues
By Summer

(*The kids are now about 18 years old*)

Rhonda and her family walk in the door with suitcases. Rhonda just drops them where she is.

Rhonda: I am so glad we’re back to lackluster ol’ Seattle! After our wonderful trip to Rome! I just have to see Sid! After so many weeks he should be totally sick of Nedine!

She picks up the phone and dials Sid’s number. His mom answers it.

S. Mom: Sorry, Sweetie. Sid’s not here. He went to pick up his tuxedo.

Rhonda: Oh…uh…thanks Ms. Martin. *Hangs up* Sid must be taking Nedine somewhere special and here I supposed he’d be fully sick of her. Well, I’ll soon stop this date!

She dials up Nedine. Her dad answers.

N. Dad: No Rhonda, Nedine’s not here. She’s down town at that Wedding Shop getting her gown.

Rhonda slams the phone into the receiver.

Rhonda: I won’t believe it! It’s impossible! Alright anything’s possible!!

She walks out the door.

Rhonda: Sid must have spent so much time with her that he decided to marry her!

Rhonda walks into the Wedding Shop.

Rhonda: Err-excuse me. Is Nedine Nelson here?

Manager: Nedine Nelson? Oh, the girl who got that expensive gown,

Rhonda: Expensive? I would have suspected the cheapest!

Manager: Oh, no! We gave her our very best! After all our reputation is riding on this occasion!

Rhonda goes home and the phone rings. It’s Arnold.

Arnold: Hey Rhonda! Nedine called and told me to remind you about the wedding-

She slams the phone down and runs out the door. Meanwhile on Arnold’s line.

Arnold: (While holding his dear) Sheesh! She just keeps getting ruder and ruder!

Rhonda: I’ve got to get there before it’s too late!

But on the way she accidentally runs into Stinky.

Stinky: *Groan* Oh, I see you’re back, Rhonda.

Rhonda: Sid!! Nedine! Where are they?

Stinky: At the church where they planned to be for a couple weeks now!! Have you finally snapped?

Rhonda: The church?! Aaahh!

Rhonda runs over to the church and flings the door open and shouts, “Stop the wedding!!”

The only person there is some lady.

Rhonda: Where is everybody?

Lady: I’d guess at the reception hall.

Rhonda: (Crying) I am too late!! It’s all my fault! I went away and so Nedine talked him into marrying her! Oh, the shame! Oh, the-

She walks in and Arnold and Helga, wearing wedding cloths walk onto the stage. Followed by Sid and Nedine.

Host: And for our final couple…Sid Martin and Nedine Nelson wearing our best cloths in the store.

Rhonda: I-It’s a fashion show?

Sid: He, Nedine look! It’s Rhonda! Hey, Rhonda!

Nedine sighs.

Rhonda: What is this all about Sid Martin?

Sid: The wedding fashion show is tomorrow night, remember? And they asked all the eighteen year-olds to model remember? This is the rehearsal.

Nedine: You didn’t forget and think we were really getting married, did you Rhonda?

Rhonda: Don’t be silly! What would give you an idea like that? *Wink*
