The Wedding Day Abandonment

My wedding was set to be the picture of perfection.

I stood at the altar, my best man beside me, surrounded by white roses and loved ones, our song just minutes from playing.

Then, Chloe's maid of honor rushed towards me, face ashen, uttering words that shattered my world: "Ethan, she’s not coming."

Chloe had abandoned our wedding, our future, for Damien—her perpetually 'struggling' ex who always needed 'saving.'

My disbelief turned to cold dread when I found them: Damien lounging comfortably, beer in hand, while Chloe justified prioritizing his 'panic attack' over our vows.
