I Yelled \u2018I Don\u2019t!\u2019 at My Own Wedding after Conversation with Groom\u2019s Mother Whose Plan Almost Worked Out\n

Ryan and Hanna are about to tie the knot and make their commitment to one another following years of courtship that began with a chance meeting. Hanna, however, is devastated when Ryan\u2019s mother shows her an embarrassing video of Ryan with a different woman. Later on, though, Hanna discovers more duplicity than she could have imagined coupled with the video\u2019s truth. Do parents just enjoy dropping bombshells before weddings? When I say before\u2014I mean 30 minutes before?\n

Because that\u2019s exactly what Ryan\u2019s mother did. When Ryan and I first crossed paths two years ago, it was kind of by accident. Because one of my friends, Mila, was directing her first local musical, I was at the community theater. And there I was, post-show, standing outside with a bunch of flowers for Mila. Ryan left, walking straight into me and smashing the flowers due of the throng. Grabbing the bouquet, he exclaimed, \u201cI am so sorry.\u201d I declared, \u201cI detest crowds.\u201d He chuckled and gestured for us to move away from the door. \u201cI\u2019m not a fan either,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m Ryan.\u201d\n

\u201cHanna,\u201d I said, introducing myself.Ryan proposed to me in a pub three months into our relationship over crispy potato skins and Guinness. We ought to have sealed that pledge with our wedding vows last week. However, our wedding took a very different turn than it should have. At first, my family embraced Ryan wholeheartedly. My parents were overjoyed that I had found someone who truly made me happy, especially since I was their only daughter. One evening when we brought Ryan over for family supper, my mother commented, \u201cThis is a different side to you, Hanna.\u201d With a smile, my father said, \u201cHe makes her happy.\u201d \u201cA father could only want that.\u201dRyan felt welcome\u2014he felt the warmth that they showered him, and through that, we grew stronger as a couple, too. It was much the same on his end. The Coles welcomed me into their house and hearts, and their only goal was to host us as much as they could. Audrey, Mrs. Cole, had also developed a manicure and coffee date routine with me. Everything felt right\u2014until the very moment it wasn\u2019t. Leading up to our wedding, I was the calmest I could have been. It was a small church wedding, and Ryan and I had planned the intimate affair right down to the little details. We knew exactly what we wanted and how to make it special for our day.But on what was meant to be the happiest day of my life, just before the ceremony, my soon-to-be mother-in-law pulled me aside.\n

\u201cMy dear,\u201d she uttered. \u201cMay we just talk for a minute?\u201dI gave her a nod and instructed her to hold off until my makeup and hair artists finished. Her mannerisms caused me to feel uneasy and apprehensive. I observed her movements while I looked at my image in the mirror. Her gaze darted quickly across the room, frequently resting on my wedding garment that hung on its hook. I turned to Audrey when I was ready and my mom was buttoning my dress.\u201cI\u2019m ready when you are,\u201d I said, smiling at her.Her eyes glazed over, seeing me in the dress. She had been at my fittings before, but this was the moment that Audrey and my mother would see the full effect of my bridal outfit. \u201cHanna,\u201d Audrey said. \u201cThere\u2019s no easy way for me to say this.\u201d My chest was thumping with my heart. I knew our talk would not result in anything positive while I sat observing her while my hair was done. I told him to just say it. \u201cExplain to me.\u201d Audrey reached into her handbag and produced her phone to show me. \u201cThis phone has movies that walk you through everything. Hanna, I really apologize, but Ryan has to be exposed.\n

My thoughts were racing. When her phone was unlocked, I had no idea what I was going to witness.A woman\u2019s voice resounded throughout the room as she handed me her phone and said, \u201cThis here.\u201d The recordings on Audrey\u2019s phone showed Ryan secretly in love with another woman\u2014a clear betrayal.\u201cAre you sure?\u201d I asked. \u201cThis is him?\u201dAudrey closed her eyes, inhaled deeply. She answered, \u201cWell, have a look at the jacket on the bed.\u201d \u201cIs that the one you acquired him for?\u201d I glanced at the jacket after pressing play once more. The hotel room likewise had a familiar appearance; I was positive we had visited there previously. I remarked, \u201cBut Ryan\u2019s face isn\u2019t in the frame.\u201dI was having trouble. My almost mother-in-law was there in front of me with a tape that revealed her son\u2019s adultery, and I couldn\u2019t believe it. \u201cHanna,\u201d she uttered gradually. It is directly before you. You can choose to ignore it, but if you do, consider the man you would be getting married to. Knowing that, could you live with yourself? Could you coexist with him? I gave a headshake. I was so overwhelmed that I wanted to cry. \u201cAll right,\u201d I replied.\n

\u201cYou\u2019re going to call off the wedding?\u201d Audrey enquired, her voice laced with optimism. \u201cNo,\u201d I replied. \u201cI intend to proceed down that aisle. I intend to stroll towards the man who has betrayed me. And I\u2019ll end it then, when it\u2019s time for our vows. Audrey put her phone back in her purse and murmured, \u201cOkay, darling.\u201d \u201cAnyway, it\u2019s almost time now.\u201d When it came time for me to marry Ryan, I settled down on the chaise and waited for my father to come get me. All I wanted was to hop in a car and head somewhere where I could eat a mound of fries and forget about my feelings.When I walked up to the altar on my father\u2019s arm, my heart was pounding so hard with rage. Ryan gave me a kind smile, sensing the fury that was building beneath my skin. Squeezing my hand, he took it. If only he hadn\u2019t been with someone else, it would have been dream come true. Our priest continued by quoting passages from the Bible that discuss marriage and love. And my heart eventually calmed down as it came time for our vows, finally recognizing what was going to happen. I mutely muttered, more to the earth than to Ryan, \u201cI don\u2019t.\u201d The priest urged Hanna to speak up more. \u201cI\u2019m not!\u201d Speaking with greater assurance, my comments echoed like a loud shockwave. I said those two words again, and Ryan\u2019s surprise turned to confusion.\n

\u201cHannah? How come? With a tone full of hurt and betrayal, he questioned.My words were, \u201cAsk your mom,\u201d gesturing to Audrey. \u201cMrs. Cole, please share with everyone what you previously told me.\u201d At once the church fell silent, like though everyone was holding their breath. She pulled her phone out of her bag with trembling hands. She held it out to me like she had earlier. \u201cObserve,\u201d I told Ryan.Ryan retreated a step and nearly tumbled over the wedding arch. \u201cHanna, that\u2019s not who I am!\u201d He spoke up. \u201cYou know it\u2019s not me, Hanna!\u201d I averted my gaze from him. He then went up against his mother. \u201cMum, what\u2019s going on here? What is that? How did you obtain the video? With a shake of her head, Audrey turned to leave the church and disappeared down the aisle. I had to endure Ryan\u2019s excuses for too long. \u201cPlease, Hanna,\u201d he said.\n

\u201cI need your faith in me.\u201d And I desired to. I wanted to believe the man I loved, of course. However, it was evident\u2014in the video, the jacket I got him was lying across the bed. He was with another person. And how would he explain the footage if it became out that he wasn\u2019t with someone else? And the girl who had very little on? What about the audio effects? I said, \u201cI can\u2019t do this.\u201d \u201cI refuse to.\u201d Leaving the side door behind me, my parents trailed closely behind me. For the remainder of the day, Ryan kept contacting me, so when night fell, I blocked his number.However, two days later, Ryan turned up at my parents\u2019 place with takeout and flowers, when I was curled up under a blanket, wondering where it had all gone wrong. \u201cYou think this will solve every problem?\u201d I enquired. He said simply, \u201cI need to talk.\u201d I listened in spite of my better judgment. Ryan\u2019s next revelation pushed me into yet another tailspin. He\u2019d approached Audrey following the nuptials.He answered, \u201cI went straight to her house.\u201d \u201cAs if she hadn\u2019t just ruined our wedding, she was sitting there, in her kitchen, eating toast and listening to old records.\u201d I yelled out, \u201cI think you did that.\u201d \u201cHanna,\u201d he issued a warning. \u201cThat video was masterminded by my mother. Her students are the ones that are in it.\n

And the reason behind it all was her dislike of our marriage. My mouth dropped to the floor. Audrey was an English tutor for first-year college students in addition to being a high school teacher. She became really anxious when she realized that Ryan and I were going to tie the knot. Too keen to earn a little extra cash, she recruited two of her college students for the role. I responded, tucking into the lunch Ryan had brought over, \u201cI thought she liked me.\u201d \u201cShe obviously doesn\u2019t, considering that she assembled a whole video.\u201d Ryan laughed tensely, \u201cShe did say that the sounds were edited.\u201d \u201cBut I have to give it to her\u2014it was a nice touch to include my jacket.\u201dI was unaware of my feelings. Since leaving my own wedding two days ago, I\u2019ve persuaded myself that Ryan was the villain in my tale. that his mother exposed him for what he was, and that he was the villain who crushed my heart. But the truth was far worse than that. This was a woman who had broken my heart to marry her son before claiming me as the daughter she never had. She thought Ryan wasn\u2019t worthy of me. I accused Ryan of ch_eating on me in front of our visitors, but he immediately forgave me, and I did the same in return. Although we\u2019re still together, I have no idea what the future may bring. I feel misled and hurt by Audrey for the time being. Furthermore, I am aware that she will find it difficult to forgive. How would you respond?\n
