"Me? I don't think that's a great idea." Karen hesitated. "I mean, none of them even know who I am. You guys go have fun without me." "You're my fiancée. They're bound to meet you sooner or later. Might as well make today the day," Jeffrey insisted. Deep down, he feared any hiccups before the engagement party. Hence, he felt it was always safer to have Karen by his side to keep the doubts at bay.
What Jeffrey did not realize, however, was that this decision would be his biggest mistake.
Because Jeffrey did not anticipate running into his ex-girlfriend at this little gathering.
And sure enough, the moment he walked in, there she was, locking eyes with him.

"Is this the future Mrs. Turner? Wow, she's a stunner!" Jeffrey's buddies caught sight of Karen and started ribbing them with grins.
This was a rite of passage in their group; everyone had been through it with a new girl on their arm.

Decisive man!" "Congratulations!" Amid the chorus of cheers, Karen noticed the girl across the table had turned pale.
She was not alone; a man, probably her boyfriend, kept passing her bites of food.
Karen did not dwell on it, figuring maybe she just felt unwell.
After a few rounds of drinks, she excused herself to the restroom.
It was getting dark outside, and she wanted to wash off her makeup and freshen up. Since she did not wear much makeup, washing her face would not make much difference.
As she closed her eyes to splash water on her face, she heard the click of high heels entering the restroom.
Another visitor-nothing unusual for the ladies' room.

It was the woman who had looked unwell.

Jeffrey told me he'd never get married when I was with him and that I shouldn't wait for him. And now, just two years later, he's announcing an engagement." Oh, great. Another ex of Jeffrey's.
