I Was His Wife, Never His Choice

Summary

My husband, Aaron, and I were supposed to go on our honeymoon to Bali.

At the boarding gate, he suddenly stopped, his expression casual, and spoke. He said our love had received everyone's blessings, so he wouldn't be going on the honeymoon.

I froze, completely unable to process it, only able to stare blankly and ask him what he meant.

He smiled, took off the wedding ring from his ring finger, and gently placed it in my palm. He told me he had a "canary" he needed to tend to constantly and had already promised to be with her.
