The Pillow That Ended Our Twelve-Year Engagement

I had managed to score tickets to the World Cup, which was my fiancé's absolute favorite sporting event.

I rushed to his office, eager to surprise him, but as I approached his door, I overheard his close friend trying to reason with him.

"Elena cleared her entire schedule to watch the games with you. She went through absolute hell to get those tickets. It really isn't right for you to take Giselle instead."

Stefan took a slow drag from his cigarette, his tone entirely indifferent as he replied, "Watching the game with Elena is boring. I'm used to having Giselle with me for every World Cup."
