Dramatic Call From Madison
Just as I was about to leave for the ceremony, my phone rang—it was Madison, her voice sharp with urgency. “Katie, you have to call it off!” she demanded. I rolled my eyes, more annoyed than surprised; this was classic Madison, trying to stir the pot at the last minute. I listened out of courtesy, but her drama only strengthened my resolve to enjoy my day, knowing she’d pull a stunt like this.

Her dramatic phone call was the last straw. I hit mute, refusing to let her sour my mood, then turned back to the mirror and straightened my dress. “This is about us, about love,” I reminded myself, locking eyes with my reflection. With renewed strength, I stepped out, fully committed to marrying Jason. Her drama couldn’t touch my resolve—today was our day, and nothing would take that away.
