Karen Wexler stared at her image in the mirror. Her hair was swept up to the top of her
head with a few srands free for style and pizzaz. She looked at her watch, 4:15 pm. in 15
minutes she would be walking down the asile to Marry the Man she loved, Joe Scanlon. She
silently prayed that this marrage would last, unlike her marriage to Jagger. She did
inform him of her pending wedding, warning him stay away from Port Charles and her. he had
broke her heart and Joe had fixed it. What else was there to real love. Jagger had been a
high school romance, Joe..well Joe was the real thing. Pure real love. There was a knock
at the door.
Karen:''Who is it?''
A raspy and strained voice answered back.
Voice:''Karen? May i come in?''
Karen:''Who is it, I can't tell by the voice?''
Voice:''You'll know when you answer the door.''
Karen:''If thats you Joe you'll give us bad luck if we see eachother before the wedding.''
Voice:''It's not Joe.''

were coming true. Finnaly he thought. There was a knock at the door disturbing his train
of thought.

self.

Joe:''Look.'' Joe handed the envelope to Frank. Frank read it.
Frank:'' Your in trouble, If Karen finds out your ex-girlfriend Sally is back and ready to
stop the wedding your gonna be dead.''
Joe:''I know.''
