Message from a delivery driver on a pizza box changed my life forever

My one-bedroom apartment was all I needed. I was in a beautiful relationship and about to tie the knot, so that tiny place became our little sanctuary, cozy and warm, a place where my new life was about to start, or so I thought so, until I received a strange message written on a pizza box.

When Ryan and I moved to the apartment that I got to love so much, we often ordered pizza from the pizzeria just around the corner. It was always the same, a double pepperoni with extra cheese.

That Saturday evening, as I was going through the wedding guest list, I decided to treat myself with some pizza. Ryan was on a business trip, and didn’t feel like cooking.

Making that order changed my life forever.

Around half an hour later, the delivery guy that always delivered our pizza, greeted me. He had his cap on, as usual, but his demeanor was strange.

Before he handed me the pizza box, he asked me if I my fiancé was not home. The question felt rather odd, but I still answered it. “Ryan’s away on a business trip,” I said and smiled. The delivery guy, Anthony, gave me the pizza box and left.

When I opened it, I noticed a message written on the pizza box. It read: “HE IS NOT WHO YOU THINK HE IS. CHECK YOUR DOOR CAMERA.”

My heart dropped. “Is this a joke?” I thought to myself.

I closed the pizza box as I lost my appetite and rushed to check the footage from the security camera.

At first, there was nothing out of the ordinary, but then, I saw it. While I was at work, a woman, tall and elegant, came to our apartment. She was bringing a bottle of wine and Ryan opened the door and welcomed her inside.

They hugged before she entered.

I had never seen that woman before. Was he cheating on me?

I couldn’t wait to confront him, scared that he was indeed having an affair.

A day later, he returned from the trip. “Hey, babe, did you miss me?” he said and leaned to give me a kiss. But I didn’t let him. Instead, I showed him the footage from the security camera.

“What’s this Ryan?” I asked, trying to hold my tears from rolling down my face.

He looked at me and said, “Don’t be dramatic, I just felt overwhelmed, that doesn’t mean I don’t love you.”

“Wow,” I thought to myself. “You didn’t even deny it?”

I knew I couldn’t stay there any longer. My heart ached and my world collapsed, but at least I learnt what kind of man Ryan was before I married him.

A few days later, I stopped by at the pizza place. I saw Anthony there and thanked him for that message on the pizza box. He said that he had second thoughts about sharing Ryan’s secret with me, but simply couldn’t let me marry someone who wasn’t worth of me.

Eventually, I moved on. The only thing I sometimes miss from my old life is the tiny apartment.
