My sister lost her husband and 8-year-old son in a crash six days before my wedding. She wanted me to cancel, but I said, \u201cI cannot sacrifice my day. We have already paid for everything.\u201d She was silent.<\/p>\n
On the big day, as we were all dancing, my sister appeared in the crowd, laughing hysterically. Then all of a sudden, we hear a massive sound as all the lights in the party venue switched off at once, and the music abruptly stopped.<\/p>\n
Horrified, I saw her son and husband\u2019s images appear on the large projection wall where our wedding photos were displayed. In that moment, I realized she had orchestrated a plan to ruin my special day.My sister then got up on stage and took the microphone, addressing me by saying, \u201cYou\u2019re up here dancing and partying while your little nephew died less than a week ago. Shame on you!\u201d
\nBefore leaving the stage, she added, \u201cWhen you have kids of your own, I will treat them with the same indifference you treated mine!\u201d<\/p>\n
Everyone was silent after that, and the guests started leaving shortly after. My day was totally ruined.
\nWas I to blame?
