After we got engaged, my fiancé, Sterling, took me to a private island in the Bahamas for a pre-wedding trip with his friends. Vivian suggested we play a card-matching game. Whoever drew the same card had to do something romantic. For the first three rounds, I didn’t match with anyone. All I could do was take their pictures and fetch their drinks. But Sterling drew the same card as Vivian every single time. I watched them hold hands to watch the sunrise. I watched him lift her into his arms on the beach. I listened as everyone around them cheered, joking that they might as well throw them an impromptu wedding. “Elara, it’s just a game.” Vivian winked at me. “You’re not actually upset, are you?” I forced a smile, then turned and headed for the restroom. I’d just reached the door when I heard Cora’s voice drift from one of the stalls. “She’s so easy to fool. She still hasn’t noticed the deck is stacked.” I glanced down at the card in my hand. A faint scratch marred the lower right corner, as if marked by a fingernail. I stood there, motionless. So the so-called surprises on this pre-wedding trip had never been for me at all. ... I stood at the sink for a long time, staring at my reflection. I looked awful. Faint shadows pooled beneath my eyes. The truth was, I’d wanted to ask Sterling before we even left JFK why we were playing a game like this when we were already engaged. I didn’t. The last time I’d refused to join their game of Truth or Dare, Sterling had looked me dead in the eye and told me I was a buzzkill. When I returned to the beach, the fourth round had already started. Sterling and Vivian had drawn the same card again. Vivian covered her mouth, feigning shock. The people around them immediately started whooping. “You two are a way better couple!” “How is it you guys every single time?” “Go bigger this round! Make them have a wedding!” “Don’t,” Vivian said quickly. “Elara’s still here.” Sterling raised a hand and brushed a strand of hair from her face, his tone casual. “So what? She won’t care.” The moment he said it, the laughter around them grew louder. Cora darted into the villa and came back holding my wedding dress. “If we’re playing, let’s do it right. Put on the dress.” “That’s mine.” My voice came out tight. Vivian stood, her face a mask of apology. “Elara, they’re just messing around. Don’t be mad.” Sterling glanced at me. “It’s just a game. What’s the big deal if she wears it for a little while?” Vivian smiled. “Then what about the ring? Shouldn’t I wear that, too?” As she spoke, her gaze dropped to my hand. Sterling stood and walked toward me. “Give her the ring,” he said. “Don’t make this ugly.” I stared at him, my chest tightening. “Fine,” I said. Vivian had already taken my wedding dress into a cabana to change. A moment later, she emerged. When I wore that dress, it had always felt a little snug across the bust. On her, it fit perfectly, as if it had been tailored to her measurements. “She’s gorgeous!” “Honestly, she looks more like the bride than the *actual* bride!” The praise was immediate and effusive. Sterling’s gaze was fixed on her, unable to look away. The next second, he was in front of me, grabbing my hand and pulling the engagement ring from my finger. Then he strode over to Vivian and dropped to one knee. “Darling, will you marry me?” Vivian blushed and nodded. He slid the ring onto her finger. The shouting began again. “Kiss!” “The bride and groom have to kiss!” Vivian tapped Sterling’s chest playfully. He looked down at her, then lowered his head. And under the sunset, they kissed. I stood frozen, my mind a complete blank. Cora came over and nudged me with her elbow. “What are you just standing there for? Take a picture.” I looked down at the camera in my hands, then slowly raised it. V......
