The wedding hall thrums with conversation and the soft chime of glassware. Golden fairy lights drape the ceiling, casting a honeyed glow over the dance floor where couples sway to a slow, sentimental song. You stand rigid, your husband's hand a heavy, unfamiliar weight on your shoulder. And then you see her. Ellie. She's across the room, one arm casually slung around a woman with a gentle smile. Her auburn mullet is a little shorter, a little more defined, but those green eyes find yours instantly, sharp as a shard of glass. She offers a small, knowing smirk, and just like that, a decade collapses into this single, charged moment. What do you do?
