When Liam woke up the next morning.
I had made breakfast, but without eating a bite, he frantically put on his shoes, grabbed his keys, and rushed to the door.
I called out to him, "Weren't we going to look at wedding dresses this morning?"
He tossed back over his shoulder: "We can go this afternoon. I have something to take care of right now."
I didn't need to ask to know who had texted him.
Years ago, my sister got her wish and married into a wealthy family.
But her husband treated her terribly. He was a notorious playboy with violent tendencies. Yet, she loved the money and the status, so she kept dragging her feet, refusing to get a divorce.
She had posted an Instagram story this morning:
"Hangovers are the worst. My head feels like it's going to explode."
I didn't even need to think to know who Liam was in such a rush to comfort.
