But before they go, Ingmar has yet to attend Alex’ wedding to Patricia. They have decided to have a low key marriage and get married at home, but have invited all their friends. Ingmar is glad to be there. He is sure that Patricia will make Alex very happy.
And Patricia sure is more beautiful than ever.
But even if Ingmar is very happy for Alex to find love, his is more thrilled about the fact that Stella will soon be _his_ wife. A dream come true. It is time to leave for Takemizu village.
It is the middle of winter in Bluewater, and bitter cold weather.
But In Takemizu village, it is already spring.
Back in Riverblossom though, the winter is just as cold as in Bluewater. Marianne’s little cottage might look very cosy, but if you have to go, you have to go the outhouse as there is no toilet indoors.
But Marianne doesn’t mind, she loves her little cottage. For one person it is big enough. But perhaps she might not remain single for much longer ...
She thinks that she finally is getting some response from Jacob. Leo has told her about the traumatic break-up with Sandra, and now she understands why he has been so reluctant to get involved again. But today she finally could convince him to do something together with her, and they went skating. It was a lovely day.
They had so much fun.
They had fun, but they also talked a lot. She has the feeling that she he is at last starting to open up to her, that she finally is getting a little closer to him.
She got cold, having spent so many hours outdoors, but that is nothing that a hot bath in front of a blazing fire can’t take care of.
She allows herself to start dreaming about a future together with Jacob. He is the nicest boy she has ever met.
Sadly enough, she will soon get competition. Michelle has gotten settled in her marriage to Morty, and so has he. He has gone back to working long hours and Michelle has taken over Stella’s roll in his life, providing him with a comfortable and perfectly run home and being a beautiful and affectionate wife to him. He is very satisfied. Michelle is not. She was of course never very much in love with Morty from the beginning, she wanted his money and position. Now when she has that, she is looking for more. Morty is such a bore and to be honest - a little on the old side for her.
He is not that hot either ...
And like Stella she makes a new and exciting acquaintance at the shop. Normally she gets the food delivered, and she was just in for some things that she had forgotten to list when she sees this young farmer. He is tanned and slender, with a body that is probably hard and well muscled from the hard work. And in addition to that he has this wonderful long hair tied back in a ponytail. Michelle can imagine him with his hair loose. On a fell ... in front of a fire ... Yummy! She must get to know him.
As he is sitting at the poker table, that proves easy and she soon learns his name: Jacob Martin. Ah – the son of Ms Viejo’s handsome husband. That is good. Then there might be some occasion to socialize. But she should take the habit of carrying love potion with her, she still has some left. Jacob seems to be in need of a nudge in the right direction. He doesn’t react very much to her discrete attempts to be alluring. That will change in a heartbeat, if she has her way.

* Shakes head*. That Michelle is sure evil... She never seems happy unless she has men wrapped around her little finger literally.
But it serves Morty right, doesn't it! ;-)
LOL. As mean as that sounds, yes it does. But poor Jacob :(.
Jacob will be fine and settle with Marianne. That's my prediction. Michelle will get what she deserves, too! :)
