When Lisa announced her engagement, the family was ecstatic. I was excited—Lisa was like a sister to me. She sent beautiful “save the date” cards, and I eagerly anticipated the wedding.
As the date approached, I realized I hadn’t received an invitation. Doubt crept in, so I texted her casually.
Her response was unexpected: “Hey! So, we actually decided to do something really small—just ten people in Vegas. We’re keeping it intimate, mostly immediate family. I hope you understand!”
I was surprised but tried to be understanding. Weddings are personal, after all.
