The reception was in full swing, and David felt like he was trapped in a pressure cooker. He’d only known the groom for a short time, and attending the wedding felt like a duty, not a pleasure. He hated large gatherings.

Then, he spotted her. She was smiling, talking to someone, and the sight of her brought a scowl to his face. He felt a dull ache in his chest.

He drained his drink and headed towards the bar, muttering something under his breath. He needed to avoid her. He needed to get through the night.
