Summary
Helga had been so, so, so patient. Whatever gods would listen to her, she’d been so patient. For an entire month she’d kept herself under control while trying to keep a hundred plates spinning at the same time. She’d ignored Miriam’s suggestion to postpone the wedding and Bob’s grumping about the deposit on her dress being nonrefundable. She fielded the calls from the photographers, the caterers, and pointedly ignored the calls from Dr. Bliss.
But most important of all, she ignored the awful, painful twisting in her chest that happened every time Arnold sent her to voicemail or left her texts on read. She understood, of course she did. Arnold’s grandparents had raised him, for as long as she could remember, they’d been there. But after a month of this, her patience was wearing thin and her temper was rising to the surface. Not at him, never at her beloved golden-haired fiancee, but rather, she was mad at the fact that he thought he had to do this alone.

Summary
Helga always assumed that Arnold just could never love her as much as she loved him. That he could never match that spark of madness in her, that insane devotion to one person so completely and utterly.
She's wrong. So very, very wrong.
