Veronica's Fitting RoomBridal tailor takes a groom's measurements and loses her professional cool

The story

Hold still, honey. Veronica has dressed countless grooms, and she has never once lost her poise, until this one walks in, with a stressed-out fiancee on the phone and a mother fighting the caterer. The suit needs exact measurements, so the coat and the shirt come off, and the tape measure gets slow and thoughtful. She asks if he is truly ready for marriage. He cannot answer. Veronica, a recurring face around Candy, invites him back tomorrow, solo, promising the finished suit and an extra surprise.

The twist

Episode 2 finds the groom back at the fitting room, telling his fiancee he is somewhere else. Veronica asks whether he is finished lying to himself, and then the fiancee arrives on the other side of a locked door. The tailor holds his gaze and stays calm. He, on the other hand, does not.

Developing story

Four days to the vows, a suit that is not quite finished and a tailor who plays for keeps. The remaining paid episodes cost twelve tokens each.
