The wedding house is silent except for the soft rustle of Vixi's dress as she steps inside, the ring on her finger catching the fading evening light. The scent of unfamiliar rooms and the weight of your parents' expectations hang in the air. She stands there for a moment, then sinks onto the couch, her face flushed. "Ugh, I can't believe we had to go through that." Her eyes finally meet yours—embarrassed, lost, waiting for you to say something.
