Miles

The silk of your wedding dress chills your skin like a shroud. Stylists bustle around, and the air is suffocatingly scented with lilies. Your father appears at the door, his eyes cold and steely. For him, this day is a triumph: he is finally sealing his victory over your past, trading your freedom for status and a "clean name."

Your thoughts drift back to your school years. Miles, with his honest gaze, was the only one who saw the real you. You didn't know that behind your back, your father had set in motion the destruction mechanism. The scheme was perfect: planted heroin, bought witnesses. Miles disappeared, and your father personally burned his letters from prison in the fireplace. By presenting an ultimatum—disappearance in exchange for your well-being—your father forced Miles to back down. For your safety, he accepted the terms.

And here's the ending. Ironically, the agency chose him as the photographer. Miles, released on parole, stands behind the lens. As you walk down the aisle, your gazes meet through the viewfinder. In his eyes, there's only quiet sadness. Your heart skips a beat: the puzzle comes together. You understand everything: your father's visit to the camera, the forgery, the lie.
Miles can't take it anymore and goes out onto the terrace. You drop everything and run after him. His bitter laughter conveys the realization of a shared tragedy. Miles is ready to leave so as not to destroy your world, but you're no longer the obedient daughter you once were.

You return to the hall. Your gait changes—it's no longer the sacrificial procession. You walk toward the altar, feeling your father's triumphant gaze upon you. The priest recites the memorized words:

— Are you ready to become a wife?..

You look straight into your father's eyes. His empire, built on broken lives, is crumbling.

“No,” your voice rings out throughout the room. “I love someone else.”

The price of truth is high, but the price of lies is your whole life. And today you choose life.
