Jessica had been dreaming of her wedding day for years, thinking it’d be the best day of her life.
When that day finally came, she came across a homeless man whom she thought was there to interrupt her plans, only to hear him sing the song her late dad used to sing.
For Jessica, her wedding day was something she had looked forward to all her life.
Having grown up in an orphanage, she held on to a fairytale daydream about how her life would play out.
She dreamed that a prince would fall in love with her and take her home to a beautiful home where they start a family one day.
As she had her eyes on that specific goal, it eventually happened for her.
Don was an excellent match for Jessica. They met while Jessica was a senior in college, and he was a budding entrepreneur in the district. They fell in love, and when he asked for her hand in marriage, she knew she’d be able to live out her fairytale dream.
Everything was set for their wedding.
They booked the most exquisite venue in town covered in fresh flowers. The couple hired the best coordinators, event planners, and caterers to plan what they wanted to be the “wedding of the century.”
On the day of the wedding, nothing could dampen it until a security guard called Jessica right before the reception started. “Ma’am, there is an elderly man who would like to see you, but he is not dressed according to your dress code, and he doesn’t seem ready to attend the reception,” the security guard told her.
Jessica walked towards the entrance and saw an old man who looked like a bum.
“I don’t know this man,” she immediately told the security guard. “Please, take him away before my guests smell that stench.”
“Jessica, do you not recognize me at all? I am your father,” the old man said weakly.
Jessica was taken aback and was beginning to feel more upset.
“Father? How dare you disrespect my father that way. He died many years ago!” she said, trying to keep her voice low so that none of the guests would hear the commotion.
The old man tried to explain himself further, but the security guards were already wrestling him to the side.
Jessica thought that maybe he wanted some food, so she went over to the buffet to get some food for him. “Maybe this would get him to leave,” she thought.
While she was at the buffet, the security guards told her that they had the situation handled and that the man had left. Jessica breathed a sigh of relief and went to rejoin the party.
