[Ellei's P.O.V.]
Kirk and I took another look at the date on the invitation card and confirmed that it was really tomorrow.
This was obviously an invitation from the village chief. He had set such a tight schedule to catch us off guard so that we wouldn't have time to ruin the wedding preparations. He had invited us when everything was ready, most likely to mock our incompetence.
I was so angry that I crushed the invitation in my hand. Kirk asked me tentatively, "Sister Ellie, are we going?"
Kirk's words brought me back to reality. Only then did I notice that the invitation in my hand was completely indistinguishable from its original appearance. I hurriedly smoothened it out, gritted my teeth, and said to Kirk, "Of course, we're going. Why not? We're going home to prep our outfits for tomorrow."
The next day, Chloe's wedding began and I went with Chloe.
