My pulse quickened, and I leaned closer to the screen. I knew there was no mistake—this was my Darren. But the Darren I knew wasn’t the kind of man who’d parade his affection for anyone else while still married. At least, he’d never been that obvious. I could feel the betrayal rising in me as the live stream continued.
Amber spoke up again.
Amber: "Two more days, guys! The big wedding is finally here! Darren's been so amazing planning everything with me, and I’m just so lucky!”
I gritted my teeth. Planning? So, he was planning a wedding with Amber, and he never told me?! What the hell was going on?
I leaned back in my chair, trying to process. Was this some kind of elaborate mistake? Some prank? I scrolled through the comments on the live feed, desperate to find any clues that would explain this insane situation.
[Elliana! You’re watching? OMG, what a cute couple they are! You must be so excited for them!]
I froze. My former classmate mentioned it to me.
[Hey, Elliana! Can you believe Amber's getting married? I bet it’s all real! Just saw the wedding venue details. Amber’s got it made! Can't wait to see everything.]
