His Plump Mate
He asked me.
I looked away. It’s embarrassing and painful to remember all this stuff. “My husband pecked my cheek when he was told he could kiss the bride, and whispered in my ear that he’s only married on paper but wanted nothing to do with me. After the ceremony, which only consisted of our fathers, my husband and me at the courthouse, he said he had business and exchanged his phone number with me and left. No honeymoon, no wedding night, no warmth.”
