My father was speechless.

He just stood in the doorway and looked at me still.

The view was not clearly visible due to the veil being lowered forward.

"Father."

What are you thinking?

It was still a feeling I couldn't dare to count yet.

Without urging my father, I waited patiently.

Of course, while thinking about where I left my handkerchief,

Soon after, there was a sound of the door closing behind my father's back.

"Tia, are you ready?"

My father's voice was shaking.

"Do you want a handkerchief?"

"Oh, no. I don't cry."

My father quickly walked in front of me and said,

"I can't cry on a happy day like this."

Rather than saying it to me, it seemed to be a word of self-determination.

"Then I'll give you a hug."

I said this with my arms open to my father.

I should comfort my father like this.

My father blinked his eyes for a moment and then looked at me and then burst out laughing with a 'pheu'phew.

"I should give you a hug."

My father, who said so, hugged me tightly.

Was my father's arm this big?

The two arms that held me tight were reassuring today.

"You don't have to worry."

"I'm not worried. You are a child who can always make wise decisions."

Warm hands patted my back.

"It's just that a lot of thoughts come to my mind, so you don't have to worry about your father."

The hand that swept my back like that held my hands together this time.

"Tia, there was a time when your hand could fit in the palm of my hand."

"That's right. It feels like yesterday when my father burst into tears when he saw my debutante ball dress."

Even with a light joke thrown in to lighten the mood, my father just stared at me.

Then, suddenly, a smile appeared in his green eyes.

"Why are you laughing, Dad?"

"It's because something from a long time ago came to mind."

Perhaps because of tension, my father's fingers, which were a little colder than usual, rubbed the back of my hand.

"When you were still in your mother's stomach, there was something Shan said."

"My mother?"

"One day, she woke up after a long nap and said, 'My daughter will meet a very wonderful person and live happily for a long time.'"

"Oh."

"She smiled with a relieved face. That look is still good to my eye. Then she said, 'So, don't cry at the wedding, Gally.'"

What did my mother see during that long nap?

"There is nothing wrong with what Shan has said so far. So, Tia, you will definitely be happier in the future."
