Kevin initially thought the bride is taller than anyone he has seen before his entire life. Then, when he saw the seat under his feet, he realized that he was not just watching the scenery. As the music continued, Kevin heard the bride crying and did not know what to do. He could not go back. He had neither the strength nor the reason to run. He believed that he had to fight to protect his house.

Then She slowly turned her head back. She was smiling... As if blood had been drawn from her whole body, the black make-up on the corners of her eyes had dried on his white cheeks. But on the one hand, she continued to cry. Kevin's body trembled as he looked into her eyes.

He said, "You are not real." He pressed the red button on the phone's camera.

"He didn't come," She said Kevin with a cheerful voice. "I waited, but he did not come. He left me and ran away with someone else".

With an intense headache, Kevin lost control of his body, he fell on his knees on the edge of the door. Something was happening to Kevin. He shouldn't have drunk... At least not tonight.

"Do you know what I did?" Sadness was replaced by the image of a woman living happy moments. "I found him and made a hole in his heart" Bloody handprints were visible around her neck. He had just seen the rope around her neck, below the traces of whole blood. The line was tied to the chandelier hanging on the ceiling.

"But I can't live anymore. Why should I be in a world without him?

"No..." Kevin began to plead, "No, no, no," without recognizing his own voice. "Don't do that, please don't do that," he said.

As she let go of the small seat under her feet and began to sway to the left like goldenrod under an ancient watch, the skirts of the bloody wedding floated in the air, creating harmony. Throughout the house, the sound of the orchestra reached its peak. Kevin closed his ears with hands and ran down the hall and threw himself downstairs. As soon as he came out of the door, lightning lit up the whole yard. When Kevin ran, his foot slipped on the grass and hit the ground. He tried to lift himself with his elbows. Then he put his head back on the grass and turned back. He looked out of the window in the whole room. Just as Kevin looked at the room, so did the woman. She was not alone. Dead soldier, a woman who was hiding from her husband, was next to bloody Bride. Moreover, She was not smiling anymore. Without taking his eyes off Kevin, they stepped back and disappeared.

Kevin took the phone out of his pocket and sent the video he had just taken to his psychologist. Then, seconds later, he could not wait anymore and called Sally.

Sally's voice sounded tired.

Kevin did not take into account that she could go to bed so early.

"I sent you a video. Look. You see. I'm not crazy... I'm not crazy", he said.

After a few seconds, "Kevin, stay in your place," She answered, "I'll be there in 10 minutes."
