I stood on the fitting platform, the wedding shop’s mirror reflecting my image as the tailors ran around me, making last–minute adjustments to the Tuxedo I had on.

According to their plans, I will be dressed in a tux for the first part of the wedding, while the second part

I just couldn’t wrap my head around the fact that Lyla would be walking down the aisle to another man. The mere thought sent a sharp pain through my chest which I swallowed; I couldn’t afford to let it show.

As the tailors went away to adjust the cuffs, the bell above the shop door chimed and in the mirror’s reflection, I saw my grandfather enter. The temperature in the room seemed to drop several degrees.
