Justin felt like he was living in a nightmare. He had just told Alicia that he would marry her, and the weight of his decision was starting to sink in. He knew that he needed to talk to someone about what was going on, so he decided to go to Karen, Ivy, and Emma.
When he arrived at their house, he found them sitting in the living room, chatting and laughing. But as soon as they saw Justin's face, their expressions turned serious.
"What's wrong, Justin?" Karen asked, concern etched on her face.
Justin took a deep breath before starting to speak. "Alicia has demanded that I marry her, or she'll kill herself."
The room fell silent as everyone processed what Justin had just said. Emma was the first to speak up. "That's insane! You can't just marry someone because they're threatening to hurt themselves!"
Karen nodded in agreement. "I know Alicia's been struggling, but this is a whole new level of crazy. You need to get her help, Justin. And fast."
