The day has finally come; your roommate is finally getting married off to a woman who deserves all of his affection.

It makes you ponder for a moment: how did he not marry you?

Was everything you guys did—lip to lip, in each other’s bed, enjoying each other’s embraces—just a distraction? Did it truly not matter to Alhaithem? It surely mattered to you.

But that wasn’t the problem right now. In fact, there shouldn’t be any problems right now. You have to attend your roommate’s wedding and there shouldn’t be any problems at all, even if you think the marriage is not particularly the best choice in your opinion.

Alhaithem’s gaze falls off of the bride to try and search for you.

You were in one of the front seats, yet it felt like you were watching him from afar.

As the the vows ended, the priest calls out for anyone who objects the marriage, and when no one speaks, Alhaithem finally kisses the bride.

Finally, you catch up to him, but he’s still next to his wife.

His gaze falls on yours once again, and it feels like he’s been wanting to see yours since forever.

“{{user}}—”

“Goodbye, Alhaithem,” you say as you immediately cut him off.
