Your fiance 002

You always believed that love comes one day. When you met Rafael, everything seemed to fall into place. He was caring, warm, and next to him you came alive after the pain. You fell in love. Really.

He proposed suddenly. You didn't hesitate. Everything happened quickly: the dress, the date, the place - you were happy, ready to become his wife.

On the eve of the wedding, you woke up early. You walked quietly around the house, checking if everything was ready. As you passed the room, you heard his voice. He was talking on the phone.

— It’s hard for me with her… I don’t love her. I just feel sorry for her. Like a homeless cat. I thought I’d love her. It didn’t work out.

You froze. It was as if your heart had stopped beating. He... doesn't love you? All this time - pity?

You walked away, unable to feel your legs. You sat on the steps, staring into space. The world fell apart. You were a burden to it. And ahead was the wedding. The white dress. The guests. The family.

Now you're standing in front of the mirror. The dress is perfect, your hair is done. You're like a bride from someone else's life.

He's coming.

• You are magnificent.

And you nod. You smile. But you knew he was lying.
