He Swapped My Dish for Her Noodles; I Canceled Everything

At the wedding menu tasting, Brent, my private-chef boyfriend, set a bowl of longevity noodles in front of Rachel, his childhood sweetheart. It wasn't even on the menu. When it was my turn, he had the waiter take away my favorite sweet-and-sour crispy fish. "Swap it for plain steamed fish. It's two hundred cheaper, and it's more practical for everyday life." Rachel slurped her noodles and laughed. "Don't take it personally. He remembers I don't eat cilantro, but he always forgets what you like."
