Some promises are made too soon.
Erling has always known what his future would look like.
A successful career. A beautiful life. And, now, a wedding to Isabel, the woman everyone believes is perfect for him.
Jude has always been there beside him.
His best friend. His closest confidant. The person Erling trusts more than anyone.
So when Erling asks Jude to be his best man, Jude says yes.
Of course he does.
He smiles through the engagement party. Helps choose the suits. Listens to Erling talk endlessly about the wedding. He stands beside him through every step, pretending that watching his best friend marry someone else doesn't hurt.
Because Jude knows something he wishes he didn't.
He's in love with Erling
And Erling has no idea.
But as the wedding draws closer, something begins to change. Erling starts questioning feelings he's spent years ignoring, and the friendship he's always taken for granted suddenly feels far more complicated.
With one wedding approaching and two hearts quietly falling apart, Erling and Jude are forced to confront a question neither of them is ready to answer:
What happens when the person standing beside you isn't the person you were supposed to fall in love with?
