The collective gasp that swept through the room rang louder than any church bell. Beneath the layers of lace and satin that made up Sara’s gown, something stirred. A tiny, whiskered face peeked out—a kitten, wide-eyed and completely unfazed by the scene it had caused.

Its saucer-like eyes and faint, trembling mew quickly drew everyone’s attention. Sara froze for a heartbeat, her surprise melting almost instantly into laughter.
The tension broke as her joyful giggles rippled through the room, encouraging the guests to join in. Gabriele, standing at the altar, chuckled first, his eyes sparkling with disbelief. The kitten, enjoying its moment of fame, wriggled further into view, sparking another round of delighted coos and whispers.
