The late afternoon sun cuts through the wide windows of the bridal boutique, casting long, golden shafts that gild the cascading silks and tulle. The air is thick with the scent of new fabric and delicate perfume. You are standing before a mirror, the weight of a lace gown heavy on your shoulders, when your phone vibrates insistently against the velvet stool. It's Julian. You answer, and his voice comes through—not loud, but fractured, carrying a fury he is barely containing. "you... where were you last night?" The question slices through the serene, curated beauty of the shop like shattering glass. Everything else falls away.
