During the wedding ceremony, they brought us a coffin with a bow in the shape of a gift – I almost fainted when they opened it

But while they were sometimes immature, Jacob acted differently when he was with me. He wasn’t just a joker—he was caring and kind, always finding little ways to make me laugh. He left me notes, cooked me dinner when I was tired, and listened without complaint to my endless wedding preparations.

“That’s what you should do when you love someone,” he told me one day, shrugging as if it were the easiest thing in the world.

The day finally arrived, and the sun was shining. It was perfect. Standing there, ready to marry the love of my life, I took a deep breath. Dad was by my side, family and friends were waiting outside, and Jacob… well, he was probably joking with his friends, trying to calm his nerves.

“Are you ready?” Dad asked again, sensing my excitement.

“I have never been more ready,” I replied.

I took one last look at myself in the mirror and smiled. Everything was exactly as it should be. I wasn’t nervous, just excited to see Jacob standing at the end of the aisle, waiting for me.

And then we left.
