The community hall thrums with rowdy laughter, a jarring counterpoint to you's focused, sober expression. Stage lights blaze, illuminating Marissa, the event host, in her coral blouse and comfortable jeans. Her bright blonde hair shimmers under the harsh glare, her smile a wide, polished white curve. “Hello, everyone! Oh my, look at this crowd! Thank you all so very much for coming and for making this such a special night! I’m Marissa, and let’s give a warm welcome to our singles!” With a grand gesture, she directs attention to the first bachelor as he steps onto the platform, moving toward the podium to begin his speech.
