“I just don't get it. Weirdly, I am mostly over it, despite what this looks like.' Skye waved a hand in front of her face. 'It's just, these past 24 hours have been a head fuck. I knew they were together, but now they're engaged.' Skye threw up her arms. 'We were together for five years. She asked me to marry her after two, and things were great then, truly.' Skye's eyes misted over for a moment. Then she shook herself. 'We had a big wedding - at the same hotel would you believe? - and when I said my vows, I meant them. For better, for worse. In sickness and in health. I don't recall there being a vow that said, "until the next young thing comes along, and I get a better offer.' She slumped forward and rested her forehead on her fore-arm.”
