Never to Grow Old Together

Summary

The first time I find a man's watch in my fiancee Lydia Winslow's car, her father calls me himself to explain it away. "Jonah, you've got the wrong idea about Lydia. That watch is mine. I must have left it there by accident."

The second time, when I discover two movie ticket stubs, her best friend tags me in a group chat. "Don't overthink it. I asked Lydia to buy those tickets for me."

It happens a third time, then a fourth, and every time after that, someone steps forward to cover for her.

By the ninth time, I pull a tie from between the car seats and hold it up in front of her face.
