It Started With the Photos
The ceremony was scheduled for 4 p.m.
By 2:30, the venue was full of family members, photographers and wedding staff.
Daniel was getting ready with his brother when someone knocked on the door.
It was Lily.
She was wearing the pale blue dress Megan had helped choose months earlier.
Daniel smiled.
“You look amazing.”
Lily smiled back, but something seemed off.
“You okay?”
“Yeah.”
He knew his daughter well enough to know that meant no.
Before he could ask again, the photographer appeared.
“We’re starting family photos in five minutes.”
Lily immediately looked down.
Daniel noticed.
“What happened?”
“Nothing.”
“Lily.”
She hesitated.
Then:
“Megan said I’m not in the first pictures.”
Daniel frowned.
“What first pictures?”
“The family ones.”
