In the bridal suite, a group of elderly women gathered, admiring Sofia's beauty and expressing their wishes for her happily married life. Sofia, adorned in a stunning white wedding dress, sat beside her joyous mother, Victoria, while her father, Michael, hurried into the room. Seeing his daughter in the bridal gown triggered memories of Sofia's childhood, making him realize she was about to leave their home. A wave of sadness overcame him, and tears welled up in his eyes.
Observing her father's emotional state, Sofia approached him, saying, "Don't be sad, Dad. This is a significant day for your daughter. If you wear that expression, it'll make me sad too." Michael replied, "I'm not sad, my dear. I'm just feeling the sorrow of this home being without you." His words resonated with everyone in the room, evoking a collective emotional response.
Sofia comforted her dad, "Maybe I'm leaving this house, but my love for Mom, Dad, and our family will remain forever in my heart." Michael felt a mix of happiness and assurance that he had made the right decision in supporting Sofia's marriage to Patrick.
Later in the day, Kate entered the bridal room, and Sofia was thrilled to see her at the wedding. Sofia inquired about her parents, to which Kate responded that they were with Michael and Victoria at the reception. Expressing gratitude for Kate's presence, Sofia mentioned the long-standing friendship between Kate's mom, Margaret, and her own mother, Victoria.
Kate dismissed thanks, stating, "It's my duty to be here, especially on your wedding day. Even if you hadn't invited me, I would have come." Sofia laughed, and their conversation turned to the groom.
When Kate asked about the groom, Sofia revealed it was Patrick, emphasizing their college connection. Kate teased, "College lovers?" Sofia responded with a smile, "Yes, he's the only good person I've ever found in my life whom I can trust blindly."
Impressed, Kate remarked, "Wow, a good person. I wish I could find someone like that too." Sofia, placing her hand on her head, offered a heartfelt wish, "May you find a good person in your life whom you can trust blindly." Lost in her imagination, Sofia contemplated the beauty of love and trust on this special day.
