“It was just a cake. And honestly, it wasn’t even that good!” Desperate, I called my best friend Sarah, an amazing baker. “What? How dare she?” Sarah exclaimed. “Don’t worry, Emily, I’m coming over. We’ll fix this.” Together, we baked a new cake, pouring our hearts into it. Despite the exhaustion, we finished by dawn. The cake was beautiful, filled with love and care. At the reception, just before cutting the cake, I revealed security footage showing Linda and her friends eating the original. “I installed a camera because I knew Linda didn’t like me,” I explained. The guests gasped, and Linda’s face turned red. Alex confronted Linda, “You ruined a thousand-dollar cake and caused Emily so much stress. This isn’t funny. It’s cruel!” As a final touch, the caterers served Linda and her friends slices of Styrofoam cake with notes: “For those with truly tasteless appetites.” The room erupted in laughter. The evening continued with joy and celebration, and despite Linda’s antics, our wedding day turned out perfect.
