can't buy me love

November 2037 - Andrew Larrea and Emma Ottomas are 24 (Peter Ottomas is 55, Samantha Ottomas is 54, Sophie Ottomas and Christopher Seiff are 24).

Andrew was recently promoted at the law firm, and he used his bonus to put a down payment on a large house in Forest Hills. The morgage is a bit more expensive than he and Emma can afford, but he and Emma have admired this house for years.

He also buys himself a luxury car to go in the enormous garage.

Andrew and Emma get married in the Lowell College chapel. Andrew's best man is his best friend from college, Christopher Seiff, and Emma's maid of honor is her twin sister Sophie.

Andrew's parents are Spanish diplomats, and they can't attend the wedding. But Emma has more than enough family for both of them.

"Congratulations, sweetie," her mother says. "So when are you and Andrew planning to have children? You'll have such beautiful babies."

"Congratulations," her father says.

"Thanks Mom, thanks Dad."

For their honeymoon, they go to Twikkii Island. They spend hours just relaxing in the hotel room.

They expore the island a little with a tour.

But mostly they just relax. Andrew gets a fantastic hot stone massage.

At night they enjoy dinner on their private balcony overlooking the ocean.

"This is perfect," Emma says.

"This place is paradise," Andrew agrees.

They're both sad that the vacation has to come to an end. But in nine months they'll have a reminder of their honeymoon - Emma is pregnant with their first child!
