After You Hurt Me 99 Times
My mother is in the late stages of cancer. Yet, she sits in a wheelchair with an oxygen tube and endures a long train ride just to attend my wedding with Isaac Pudley.
But when it's time for him to walk down the aisle, I don't see him anywhere despite screaming his name.
It turns out his childhood sweetheart, Megan Ericsson, is having another depressive episode and is threatening suicide again.
"Isaac, I can't live without you," she screeches.
Isaac is always so stern and composed, but he now holds Megan in his arms and begs me to call off the wedding so they can leave.
Relatives and guests watch the spectacle with thinly veiled amusement. To make matters worse, my mother is so angry that she faints.
However, Isaac believes that my mother is feigning illness. He only wants to take Megan with him and leave. He even takes away my mother's wheelchair.
But he seems to have forgotten that he has hurt me 97 times by now.
After he hurts me 99 times, I’ll definitely leave him.
