Life

The groom hides a secret from his bride, but Karma gets the job done.

Cloaked in my wedding gown, I basked in the princess-like magic, only an hour away from saying, “I do.” The bridal suite resonated with excitement as my mother and I had a pre-wedding moment, laughing punctuating the air and creating a sense of perfect tranquility.

A sudden knock interrupted our jubilation. Intrigued, I opened the door to an empty corridor, only to discover a gift at my feet. When I opened it, I felt a terrible feeling when I saw images of my fiancé in a loving embrace with another lady. Shock paralyzed me, and the atmosphere was weighted with treachery.


My mother joined me, and we examined the incriminating evidence, identifying the hotel in the photographs. Angered, I determined that the truth had to be faced before the upcoming wedding. With my mother by my side, we set out on a journey to uncover the deceit that was endangering my upcoming marriage.

As I entered the described room, I readied myself for a conflict. The door flung wide, displaying my fiancé with the other woman, taken aback by my unexpected arrival. As I confronted him with the facts, shock, and shame washed across his face, exposing the treachery.

The truth emerged, destroying the envisioned fairy tale. Wedding arrangements were postponed, and the once-princess-like gown became a haunting reminder of love’s deception. I stepped away from a poisoned relationship with steadfast determination, holding my head high. The wedding may have failed, but in the echoes of loss, I found the courage to redefine my own happily ever after, free of the shadows of treachery.
