Shield Me from Disaster

Summary

The day before my wedding, I asked my best friend to try on her bridesmaid dress. She showed up wearing my wedding gown.

The next morning, on my actual wedding day, my best friend and my fiancé emerged from the same hotel room, disheveled. The staff gasped in shock, and my parents were beside themselves with grief and outrage.

My fiancé, guilt etched on his face, stepped forward to embrace me. I didn’t raise my voice or make a scene. Instead, I calmly and generously announced that I would hand over the entire wedding ceremony to them.

My best friend preened, completely unaware.
