Ring fits best friend Sophie perfectly, exposing fiancé's true focus.
At a crowded public proposal, the narrator's fiancé slides a ring onto her finger only to find it stuck. Her best friend Sophie tries it on and it fits flawlessly. The jeweler confirms the band was crafted to Sophie's measurements, a detail the fiancé recalled from a passing remark while overlooking the woman he claimed to love. He brushes it off as a simple error, but the narrator sees the truth: his attention belonged elsewhere. She hands back the ring, deciding that if Sophie matches the jewelry so well, she can keep the man who came with it.
