On My Wedding Day
She just looked at me, her eyes cold—so cold it was like she’d packed every emotion away, too tired even to give me hatred.
I walked up to her, voice low, teeth almost grinding.
“What are you doing?”
She didn’t answer.
Instead, she lifted her hand.
On her ring finger, the ring flashed in sunlight—like a bright, merciless verdict.
My chest sank.
I stared at it, my voice turning harder.
“You married him? Do you even know who he is? Do you know what you’re doing?”
David didn’t move.
He spoke lightly, as if it were nothing.
“Henry. Don’t raise your voice. It’s a happy day.”
