While my entire family was helping my adopted sister try on wedding gowns, the doctor told me I had almost no time left. I held my terminal stomach cancer diagnosis and sent one message to the Moretti family group chat. “If I were dying, would any of you miss me?” Three minutes later, my parents replied. “You would lie about having cancer just to ruin Bianca’s wedding?” “Enough. The Moretti family has no daughter who tells lies like this.” My brother called, already irritated. “Bianca’s father died taking a bullet for me. No one will ever walk her down the aisle. She only wants to experience one wedding. Why can’t you let this go?” My childhood sweetheart and fiancé, Adrian Vitale, never answered. He was kneeling in front of Bianca, gently arranging the skirt of my wedding gown. Seven days earlier, my family had decided to give her my wedding. I stood there for a long time before signing the body donation papers. My parents and brother could choose her. My fiancé could choose her too. This time, I would fight for nothing.

Six months later, the body donation program ended.By the time the Moretti family received notice, I had already been buried in a small private cemetery in the Hudson Valley according to the instructions I left behind.There was no family procession, no guests, and no line of black Moretti cars.My headstone carried only my name and dates.Below them was one sentence:Elena Moretti. At last, she owes no one anything.My mother stood before it for a long time.During those six months, she had repeatedly tried to move me into the Moretti family cemetery. She asked the lawyers whether my final wishes could be changed.The answer was always the same.No.While I was alive, they had been accustomed to making decisions for me.In death, they finally had to accept mine.My father reopened the records from the attack sixteen years ago.This time, the official family archive clearly stated that ten-year-old Elena Moretti had saved Nico during the ambush.Carlo Ferraro’s name was not erased.He

Three days later, Thomas Hale brought the restored footage to the Moretti estate.The image was old and grainy, but it showed enough.When the first shots struck the convoy sixteen years earlier, ten-year-old Elena broke away from security and ran back toward the vehicles. She dragged the injured Nico behind an armored car and pressed her own coat against his wound until the guards reached them.By the time Carlo Ferraro appeared, Nico was already safe.As everyone prepared to retreat, young Bianca began crying that a medal her mother had left her was still inside the first car.Carlo stopped.The guards tried to hold him back, but he turned and ran into the line of fire.Less than half a minute later, he collapsed beside the vehicle.The footage ended.No one in the room spoke.The Morettis did owe Carlo something.But he had never taken a bullet for Nico.The person who had pulled Nico out of the gunfire had been Elena all along.My father sat at the end of the long table without mov

Bianca arrived at the hospital still wearing my wedding gown.The hem was stained from the day, and my grandmother’s Madonna brooch was still pinned inside the ribbon of her bouquet.The moment my mother saw it, her expression changed.She crossed the corridor and removed it.“Take off the dress.”Bianca froze.“Francesca…”“It belonged to Elena.”My mother closed her fingers around the brooch.“The gown was hers. The wedding was hers. The townhouse was hers.”Her voice began to shake.“How much did we take from her and give to you?”Bianca’s eyes filled with tears.“I never forced any of you to give me those things.”No one denied it.Because she was right.Most of the time, Bianca did not even need to ask.She only had to look hurt, and someone would turn to me.Elena is stronger.Elena has plenty of time.Elena will understand.My mother covered her face.That was the worst part.Bianca had used their guilt, but the people who kept taking things from me had been my own family.Nico

When the staff arrived to transfer my body for donation, my mother finally lost control.She stepped in front of the gurney and gripped the rail.“Where are you taking my daughter?”The doctor stopped.“Miss Moretti signed a valid body donation agreement before her death.”“I don’t agree.”Her voice shook.“I’m her mother. She told me everything growing up. She would never make a decision like this without me.”After a moment, the doctor handed her a sealed bag containing my belongings.Inside were my phone, keys, medication, and the black velvet envelope she had given me that morning. The hotel documents were untouched.On the back, I had written:Mom, I don’t need another replacement.My mother went silent.She had seen how pale I looked that morning. She knew I had been to the hospital twice.Yet what worried her most was whether I might appear at the wedding and make Bianca feel guilty.Nico stood against the wall and picked up my phone.The password was still his birthday.He unlo
