A Silent Deer Interrupted Their Wedding and Changed Everything After
One Petal, One Step
A single petal loosened from Emma’s bouquet and drifted to the ground. It floated slowly, twisting once before landing at her feet. The deer took one step forward. Then it froze again, legs locked, eyes steady.
No one in the clearing moved. It felt like one of those quiet, loaded scenes in a film—the kind you only catch if you’re fully tuned in, the kind where blinking means missing something important. Only this time, it wasn’t a screen. It was happening in real time. The deer’s gaze stayed fixed, almost as if it were waiting for a cue that only it could hear.
