Just before they go in Cassie stops and looks at her dad, then Jody and then Gia. Before she met Karoliena, they were the three people who had always been there for her no matter what, and she really appreciated that. "Come on, group hug," Cassie says, pulling them all in. "I love you guys, all of you, so much." She smiles and holds the hug for a few seconds, before letting them all go. When she does, Gia gives her a little good luck kiss on the cheek and then walks into the room and up the aisle to the front. Cassie takes a long breath and smiles. "I guess this is us," she says with a smile. "Mommy we go see mommy?" Jody asks. "Yes, LJ. Mommy's in there looking so beautiful, waiting to see us. Come on." She takes Jody's hand and with her other hand she holds her dad's. She nods to the guy on the door, and he signals to the organ player, who starts to play a slightly different song. With her dad and her daughter by her sides, Cassie walks into the room at last.
When she walks in, heads turn to look at her, everyone smiling in awe at how amazing she looked, but Cassie couldn't see any of them. She could only see the one girl at the front of the room, her entire world, Karoliena, who was waiting for her so they could share in the most special moment of their whole lives and commit to each other forever. Cassie had imagined that Karoliena would look beautiful, but she looked even more amazing than she could ever have imagined. She was perfect in every way, like a dream that Cassie would never have to wake up from. When Jody sees Karoliena, she beams widely and waves to her. Karoliena coming into their lives had been as important for Jody as it had been to Cassie. For the first time in her life she had two parents who loved her, and it meant everything to her.
As they reach the front of the room, Cassie stops to give her dad a long hug, before he gives Karoliena a hug as well and sits down. It meant a lot to him to see his daughter happy, and he could tell that Karoliena did just that. Cassie smiles and then bends down to Jody to give her a kiss on the cheek. Jody runs over towards Karoliena and hugs her leg, which makes everyone in the room laugh gently, before Jody scuttles over to stand with Gia, holding her hand. Cassie smiles and turns back to the front, walking to Karoliena. As she stares into her eyes, she thinks about how perfect her life is now, and it was all down to this perfect, beautiful girl stood in front of her. She wipes one happy little tear from her eye, scolding herself internally for crying already. "Hi," she says to Karoliena, smiling widely at her. This was the moment of her life for sure, and a day she would never forget. |
