Wedding cake in the middle of the road


Once upon the time my friend, Suellen, and I were driving on our way to our holiday destination when we spotted a cake on the middle of the road. The cake was lying there completely intact. As we were not in a rush we decided to stop and have a closer look.

As we got close to the cake we realised that it was actually a wedding cake! At that moment all we could think of was the fact that somebody is about to get married and the cake is definitely not on its way to the wedding. We were looking around for clues when Suellen found a receipt with a name and number on it. We called and in the background we could hear a sobbing woman who eventually brought herself to the phone.  It was the bride.

We told her that we found the cake and for reasons that we couldn’t understand it was as perfect as a cake can be. We then made it our mission to deliver the cake. When we got there the bride was so happy that she invited us to be part of her special day. There was no way that we could say no even though we weren’t dressed properly for a wedding.

That night Suellen met Bruno, Juliana’s (the bride) brother who is now her husband! To this day Juliana, Suellen and I are inseparable and we always talk about how our lives changed when we found a wedding cake in the middle of the road.
