Bryant Park Grill New York...
About 50 people sit in the shade above a huge white tent, surrounded by a multitude of flowers and decorations. White and pink roses are hanging everywhere. The guests sit on white wooden chairs and wait impatiently for the bride to appear. The groom is standing next to the vicar.
About 5 meters from him stands his daughter, Lily and the other bridesmaids. Violet's nieces.Sitting on the chair in front of him is his son, Anton. Next to him is Austin, Violet's son. Their mother also came to the wedding, although her face does not show that she wants to be there. She smiles so as not to upset anyone. All this reminded her of her and Ion's wedding who took place more than 20 years ago. A trace of melancholy strains her heart and she sighs.
Gene sits on the other side, in the chair, opposite Anton, Austin and Liliana's mother. Liliana's older brother is not bashful at all and always looks at him indiscreetly, watching his every move.
Gene notices this, but doesn't pay attention. He pays attention to the girl, inspecting her from head to toe with bright eyes. He thinks Liliana is the most radiant and beautiful bridesmaid there.
As delicate as a flower, a pure yellow rose. Yellow because she is dressed in a yellow dress, just like the other bridesmaids. But that dress looks so good on her. She shines next to the other girls. That's for sure. She wears white lace gloves on her delicate hands. And the white flowers in her dark hair highlight her wonderful features. Gene is absorbed in her beauty and tenderness. The brunette notices how he stares at her and waves to him and smile.
Everyone's thoughts are banished when the organ is heard and the people begin to whisper.
The bride enters. She has the veil on her face, but it can be seen that she is smiling. The train of dresses is long, and a little girl holds it while other little girls are in the back and throws white rose petals from wicker baskets.
Liliana's father smiles as he sees his future wife slowly advancing to the altar.
When she reaches him, the man removes the veil from her face. Violet smiles at him with her azure eyes.
"You're so beautiful," he says.
Violet glances at the bridesmaids, at Liliana to be exact. She picks up her bouquet of flowers, smiling and Liliana does the same.
The vicar starts reading from the book, while Violet and Ion hold hands.
Austin walks with a small velvet pillow on which the bride and groom wedding rings are.
Ion is the first to take the wedding ring and says his vows and then puts the ring on Violet's finger.Violet takes the wedding ring, says her vows and puts the ring on Ion's finger.The vicar says:
"Now I declare you husband and wife."
Ion grabs her waist, now his wife, and kisses her on the lips while the crowd applauds and exclaim in ecstasy.
After a while, everyone is at the reception, at the restaurant.
Everyone dances and feels good. Lily is the soul of the party, dancing freely while Gene watches her, smiling. She pulls Gene to dance with her. At first he opposes but in the end he has no choice and does exactly that.
After a while there is total silence and a slow, romantic music is heard.The bride and groom go to the middle of the dance floor and the married couple starts dancing.
Lily looks at the two, radiating. Gene approaches her and takes her hand in his and kisses her on the cheek.
"You have no idea how happy I am that you came," she says.
"If someone else had asked me to, I wouldn't have done it."
"What? Why?" The girl asks, frowning in confusion.
