The doors open and the bridal party makes their entrance, the music resonating throughout the church. The women shine in their baby blue gowns and the bride, Belle, arm in arm with her dad, shines. Her white gown with sequined embroidery catches the eyes of the onlookers, as her father smiles and leads his daughter to the groom. My stomach churns. I can’t let this wedding happen knowing the truth.
Once the priest gives his wedding sermon the vows begin. When he asks if anyone objects, I hastily stand.
The room, aghast over the disruption, waits for me to respond.
