He Made Me the Bridesmaid, So I Left Him at the Altar

After ten years of loving him,the man I had waited for finally came home.

Luca DeLuca had returned from service.Not military service the way civilians understood it.He had done violent,quiet work for the Family overseas,the kind no one discussed at Sunday dinner,and now he was back with honors,debts settled,his name spoken with respect in rooms I would never be allowed to enter.

Everyone said he had come back to marry me.

I believed it too.

I believed that after ten years of separation,longing,and waiting,I had finally reached the ending I had dreamed of.

Until I opened his old phone.
