Bonus 10: Two Days Before

It was two days before my wedding. The house was quiet, a lull of calmness in the storm of preparation. I was at home that evening, half lost in the endless list of last-minute arrangements and half lost in daydreams. Enzo was out, running some errands.

I didn’t expect anything out of the ordinary. But as it turned out, I was in for a huge surprise.
