Saat gladi resik pernikahan, rekan kerja perempuan tunanganku tiba-tiba menyerbu dan menghancurkan dekorasi hingga berantakan. "Jared janji mau nikah sama aku, siapa kamu ini sebenarnya?" tanyanya. Dia merebut gaun pengantinku yang bernilai puluhan miliar. Namun karena tubuhnya terlalu gemuk, bahkan kepalanya saja tidak bisa masuk di gaun itu. Aku mengejeknya, "Jangan-jangan kamu terlalu gemuk sampai gaun pengantin ukuran besar ini pun nggak muat di tubuhmu?" Dengan wajah yang memerah karena malu dan marah, Quincy memaksa dirinya masuk ke gaun itu. Dalam sekejap, bagian punggung dan pinggang gaun itu robek hingga terbentuk lubang-lubang besar yang mencolok. Dengan percaya diri, dia berkata, "Memangnya kenapa kalau kurobek gaun ini? Jared cinta sama aku dan bakal beliin aku gaun pengantin yang baru." Namun saat acara pernikahan dimulai, Quincy terkejut bukan main. Pengantin pria yang berjalan mendekat sama sekali bukan Jared, melainkan bos besar mereka. Lagi pula, aku tidak pernah mengatakan bahwa ini adalah pernikahanku.

On the night of my 30th birthday, I waited until the early hours of the morning, but my husband, Theodore Hawk never showed up. Instead, I came across an Instagram post from his childhood sweetheart, Emily Gallagher. [What romantic is not the starry night, it is having you by my side.] In the picture, she was wearing a delicate, sky-blue camisole that revealed just enough to charm and seduce. A man stood close behind her, his hand firmly gripping her waist. The scene was set in the seaside villa that Theodore had gifted her, their figures intimately entwined under the soft glow of the night. Someone had commented beneath the post: [I can’t stand you two being this lovey-dovey all the time! Just get married already!] Emily had responded with a shy-face emoji. I had just liked the post when Theodore, who I had failed to reach all night, blew up my phone with calls. "Are you out of your mind, Camilla? Emi and I grew up together! If we wanted to be together, we would’ve done so long ago! Why are you being so petty?" Looking at how Theodore gently held her in his arms, comforting her, I realized something. Letting go of someone you’ve loved for seven years... can take only a moment.
