Chapter 36 Summary: “Happy Place”

Sabrina and Parth get married on the beach with sunflower bouquets, cake, and their friends in Lobster Hut outfits. The photographer captures them by the pool, on the sand, and exchanging vows.

When Cleo tells the men she’s pregnant, they’re beyond excited. They eat pizza and chat for hours. After sunset, they make a bonfire on the beach, roasting marshmallows, cuddling, sharing ridiculous baby name ideas, and pretending tomorrow isn’t their last day.

In their room, Harriet and Wyn focus on the present. They have slow, loving sex. As he kisses her, he promises that his love always has and always will belong to her.

Chapter 37 Summary: “Real Life”

Harriet wakes up beside Wyn and sneaks off to grab her luggage. Harriet needs to leave in secret, as goodbyes are painful. On the way to the airport with Sabrina and Cleo, Harriet admits that she is miserable with her job, and they support whatever she decides to do. She doesn’t have any idea of her next step. The friends cry at the airport while they hug.

Still teary, Harriet waits at her gate. She looks at Wyn’s incredible tables on her phone. Suddenly, she has an epiphany: Wyn is scared that she won’t choose him, not trusting that she’ll love him forever or that he’s good enough.
