The Countdown of Apologies

Summary

On the day of my shotgun wedding to Liam Vance, his childhood friend cried and asked him:

"If she and I ever get into a fight in the future, whose side will you take?"

Liam impatiently told her she was being ridiculous.

Yet, he sided with her every single time.

When his childhood friend orchestrated a cyberbullying campaign against herself, Liam was convinced I was the mastermind and forced me to issue a public apology across all platforms.

"Mia, when you do something wrong, you have to apologize."

But he didn't know.

Every apology was a countdown to our separation.
