He had nothing to say.
I removed my florist badge and looked at him.
“You were right about one thing.”
He frowned.
“What?”
“Something went wrong today.”
Then I walked away.
I neither destroyed the flowers nor made a speech because neither mattered.
Sarah left through the front doors with her father.
Guests began whispering.
Julian disappeared into the ceremony room to explain whatever he could.
Colleen sat down against the hallway wall and cried.
Adrian stood alone in the suit he’d bought for our wedding.
For months, I had believed losing him was the worst thing that had ever happened to me.
Walking out of that venue, I finally understood something.
I hadn’t lost the man I was supposed to marry.
I had discovered who he really was before I married him.
There was a difference.
And for the first time since the funeral, I didn’t feel like a grieving fiancée.
