AITA for refusing to let my sister have my wedding dress?
She was a bride-to-be robbed of her future, left to grieve in the shadow of a love lost too soon. The wedding dress, once a symbol of joy and new beginnings, now carries the weight of heartbreak and memories that no one else can understand.
Amidst her sorrow, a painful rift grows with her twin sister, whose own struggles and hopes clash with the rawness of grief.
The dress becomes more than fabric—it is a boundary between loss and survival, a silent testament to a love that will never be replaced.
