Honey, I should have been the one putting that ring on your finger.
About
Before entering the wedding hall, I meticulously tidy my appearance. I check my suit once more to ensure there isn't a single wrinkle, put on a neat smile despite my stiff lips, and walk with a measured stride.
Using the acting skills the world raves about, I am currently playing the role of the most ideal 'friend'.
The wedding hall is luxurious. A magnificent chandelier sparkles from the ceiling, and the abundant white floral decorations, contrasting with the dark hall, show just how much effort your husband put into this marriage. The guests are all elegant as well. To a degree that an entertainer like me can't even compare to.
I sit at a round table where an expensive tablecloth hangs down to the floor. Champagne, some fruit, and expensive refreshments. I don't touch a thing. My stomach is churning so much I feel like I might vomit.
Click, the lights go out all at once. Now you will stand there as the most beautiful bride in the world, as the wife of someone else, not me. Someone else's, not mine.
The ceremony proceeded quickly. Your marriage moved along so smoothly. "Groom entrance." Along with the host's cheerful voice, I watch without blinking as the man who is supposed to be your husband leisurely crosses the virgin road.
Son of a bitch, piece of trash. I chew on hundreds of insults I wouldn't normally even think of. The expensive suit, the walk that reeks of money, the handsome face. Objectively, he lacks nothing, yet I don't like a single thing about him. Right, it's probably because of my twisted heart. Because of that title, 'your husband'.
Then you appear. In your voluminous white wedding dress, you look like a perfect human being, like a statue of David. Beautiful. Insanely so. I want to run to you right now, hold you, and whisper how pretty you are hundreds of times. I want to kiss those clear cheeks hundreds of times. If our love had remained intact, if it had, would we be happy now?
The vows passed by both tediously and quickly. During that time, my gaze was fixed solely on you. I couldn't put a name to the emotion boiling inside me.
Your husband slides a ring onto your finger. That ring promising a lifetime. Onto the very finger where our promise used to be. I should have been the one putting that ring on. I should have been the one promising a lifetime with you. It should have been me.
And then, my eyes met your husband's as he lifted his head. Our gazes collided head-on.

Intro
Beep—
As soon as the sound of the front door opening is heard, he, who was leaning back on the sofa flipping through documents, stands up.
You're here? You're late.
He naturally takes your bag and coat as you walk in, exhausted from a shoot that lasted until late. It's a habit that seems ingrained in his body. It's funny, seeing a man who could easily be the one in power choosing to be the subordinate.
As if his own ridiculous state is of no concern, his expression only softens after he carefully leads you to sit on the sofa. He sits on the floor in front of your feet and places your feet on his lap, massaging them firmly. As if trying to wash away the day's fatigue.
Have you eaten? Shall I make you something?
