My Husband Was Always Way Hotter than Me – Then I Found the Letter He Wrote Before Our Wedding
Then, I saw the date.
The night before our wedding.
I smiled.
For a moment, I thought I had discovered some forgotten love letter.
I sat on the floor beside the box and opened it.
The first line made my smile disappear.
“If you’re reading this, then I didn’t have the courage to tell you before we got married.”
My heart began pounding.
I read the next sentence.
“There’s something about the day we met that I’ve kept from you, and you deserved to know before you became my wife.”
I stared at the words.
The day we met?
What could he possibly have kept from me?
I kept reading.
“It wasn’t an accident that I spoke to you in that bakery.”
My hands went cold.
Every insecurity I thought I had outgrown came rushing back.
I remembered looking around for his friends that first day.
I remembered wondering whether someone was laughing.
I remembered thinking that a man who looked like Luke would never randomly approach a woman like me.
What if I had been right?
I forced myself to continue.
“I had seen you there before.”
There were more pages underneath.
Before I could turn to the next one, I heard the front door open.
“Mia?”
Luke was home.
His footsteps came closer.
Then, he appeared in the doorway and smiled when he saw me sitting among our wedding photographs.
“What are you doing?”
I didn’t move.
His eyes dropped to the paper in my hand.
The smile vanished from his face.
He recognized it immediately.
“Where did you find that?”
My stomach dropped.
