My cousin faked a pregnancy to stop her boyfriend from moving abroad.
He panicked and proposed within a week.
Whole family celebrated. Venue booked. Engagement photos taken.
Then at dinner his little sister asked, โSo whenโs the baby due again?โ
My cousin gave one month. Her boyfriend gave a completely different month.
Silence.
Even the waiter stopped walking.
Turns out theyโd both been lying to each other. He had already figured out she wasnโt pregnant but kept pretending because he didnโt know how to cancel the engagement without drama.
They broke up before dessert arrived.
