She Said Yes, I Said Bye
Seven days before our wedding, Danny Wagner—my childhood sweetheart—got down on one knee for Mia Kant, the broke girl he'd been sponsoring. Right in front of me and his buddies.
I didn't cry. Didn't lose it. Just slapped a smile on my face and said, "Wishing you two a lifetime of happiness."
His buddies? Oh, they had the nerve to tell me to be generous and let Danny help Mia finish her "wish list."
Danny, unsatisfied and ticked off, said I was overreacting and demanded an apology.
Dismissive, he sneered, "I said I'd marry you after Mia's wish list was done. Stop being so unreasonable."
I knew this was the last item on her list.
I opened my notes app, scrolled to my wish list, and deleted all thirty-three bullet points.
Done.
Then I made a call. "I'm willing to marry you."
