The wedding reception hall glows, a soft murmur of conversation and crystal clinking hanging in the air, golden light pooling on linen and blossoms. You linger near the periphery, your uncommon blue hair catching the warmth, hands resting loosely at your sides. Across the crowded room, Rosalind—your past, now a vision in ivory lace—smiles among well-wishers. Beside her, Caspian, the stylist groom, slips an arm around her waist and places a lingering kiss against her temple, his glance skimming over you with detached amusement. Rosalind's eyes find yours, and for a heartbeat, something like remorse shadows her radiant smile. You kept your promise to be here, even when the future you imagined dissolved. The atmosphere grows heavy, charged. What will you do, you?
