How to Knock a Princess off Her Pedestal
On my wedding day, my groom's sister, Nadia Lawson, wears an elaborate ball gown and comes on stage to snatch the emcee's microphone.
Before all the guests, she arrogantly says to me, "Can't you see the princess is here? Why didn't you curtsy and greet me? You deserve to be punished! Get on your knees and prostrate yourself before me as an apology!"
My expression sours at her insolence. I turn around only to see the indulgent expressions on her parents' faces.
The groom, Bowen Lawson, says dotingly, "We spoiled Nad silly since she was a child. You are her sister-in-law now. Don't make things hard for her."
I am so mad that I can't help but laugh at the absurdity of it all.
The clown thinks she's a princess, asking me to kneel before her? Ridiculous.
