I work as a waitress at luxurious weddings. That day, a colleague had asked me to cover for her. Everything was ready: the guests were seated, the ceremony was about to start.
As I was adjusting the final details, a waitress ran up to me, panicked: “Are you okay? Have you seen the groom? Oh no, if you had seen him, you wouldn’t be so calm…”
Curious, I turned toward the entrance. The groom had just entered the room, holding the bride’s hand. It was him—my husband. The man I had married seven years ago.
I froze, unable to move. He didn’t even see me. He walked forward without taking his eyes off his future wife.
I left the room hastily, tears in my eyes. There, at the entrance, I noticed the sign: “Welcome to the wedding of Claire and Ricky.”
I stood still for a few seconds, in shock. How could he do this to me? Marry someone else without even divorcing me?
Then I thought, I can’t just let him get away with this.
I went back into the room, and here’s what I did…
I returned to the room, trembling but determined.
I grabbed the microphone near the DJ, interrupting the soft music playing in the background.
All eyes turned to me.
“Sorry, I didn’t want to ruin this moment… but I have to tell the truth.”
A silence fell over the room.
“This wedding should not be happening… because the groom, whose real name is Denis, is already married to me.”
Whispers spread through the crowd.
The bride burst out laughing, thinking it was a bad joke.
“Yes, Denis. You didn’t think I would be here today, did you? Seven years of marriage, and you dare to remarry without even divorcing?”
Denis’ face turned pale, unable to say a word.
The bride stepped back, shocked, then threw her bouquet to the ground and left the room.
As for me, I walked away with my head held high, leaving behind the chaos he deserved.
