My childhood was marked by my father’s broken promises, leaving me longing for his presence. Despite the disappointments, Dylan’s arrival sparked hope, and his belief in inner transformation shifted my perspective.
As Dylan proposed, my father reappeared, pledging to make amends. Conflicting emotions arose as he asked for the father-daughter dance at my wedding.

In the end, peace came not from my father’s words but from the unwavering support of Richard, Dylan, and my mom.
