SALMA
I was standing in the kitchen, making coffee like any other normal morning, when I heard the mail slip through the slot in the door.
It was nothing unusual.
Bills, coupons, the occasional flyer for a new restaurant opening up.
But this time, something felt different.
There was an odd sense of anticipation as I walked over to the door, almost like I knew something unexpected was waiting for me.
And there it was—an envelope, cream-colored, heavier than the rest of the junk.
My name, Salma, written in delicate gold cursive across the front.
No return address.
I frowned, feeling a weird sensation in my chest.
Something about the handwriting felt familiar, though I couldn't place it at first.
I held the envelope for a moment, weighing it in my hands, trying to shake off the unease creeping up my spine.
When I finally tore it open, the words on the invitation made my heart stop.
"You are cordially invited to the wedding of Vito Moretti and..."
I stopped reading.
The rest of the words blurred into the background as his name burned into my mind.
Vito.
It couldn't be.
After all these years... why now?
Why me?
