Such a simple word for such a complicated thing. I love Jake more than life itself, which is exactly why I can’t pretend to support something I don’t believe in.
They can still get married. They can still have their beautiful garden wedding with string lights and perfect flowers.
I just won’t be the person funding it anymore.
And if that makes me the villain in this story, if that means I’m the mean future mother-in-law who ruined everything, then so be it.
I’d rather stand by my principles than throw money at a marriage built on secrets, traps, and betrayal. Because at the end of the day, I have to live with myself.
And I have to believe that sometimes love means saying no, even when it breaks your heart.
