After the Vows

On the day I'm supposed to register my marriage, I wait outside city hall from 8:00 am until the staff get off work. Everyone stares at me oddly as I leave.Just then, Darren Preston texts me and tells me we'll do it another day—an emergency arose at his company.I return to our empty home and check my phone. That's when I see Darren's childhood sweetheart's Instagram post."Thank you for the birthday present, Darren!" The photo shows an island and a man's toned muscles in the corner of the image.The comments are from people expressing their envy. They wish they have someone like Darren in their lives.I like the post and share it with a friend. "Do you remember the blind date you mentioned? Set me up."
