Letter To Daughter On Wedding Day Novels & Stories

Mercy cleared her throat and responded, "She went early for work." "I see…" She mumbled and opened the note whose details would never be erased from her heart and whose effect will live forever: Dear Esther, It hurts me to know that I won't be able to celebrate this special day with you. It's sad, but I know you will understand. I am always with you at heart, my dear. Remember this my daughter; that whatever happens, you will always be my loving daughter, I love you so much. Your loving papa, Richard.

I took it from my dad and he kissed the top of my head before going out. I looked at the letter blankly and slowly open it. I closed my eyes and took a really deep breath before reading it. Dear Athena, When I write this, it's a week before your wedding. Well I know maybe you won't read this but I just want to say, I'm happy for you. Seeing you will get married with someone you love and then imagining that big smile showing up later on already makes me happy.

Eloá walks over and gently takes her father's hands, trying to reassure him and calm his heart. “Dad… you've always been by my side, supporting me… and today isn't any different. I want you with me on this day, just like you've always been.” “Of course I will!” he says, squeezing his daughter's hands. “But let me tell you something. After this wedding, I don't want to hear about another one anytime soon.” he declares, shooting a pointed look at Elisa, who immediately shrinks back a little, already understanding exactly what her father means.

"Ma'am, that young man is banned from the property. Your daughter gave me a direct order. She told me to make sure no calls or messages from him reached you. She said it was for the family's peace." The words hit me like a slap. So, he had tried. He did care. But my own daughter, my scandal, had built a wall between us. A hot, sudden anger flashed through me. "So, Leo really does care, but my scandal of a daughter is behind all this," I whispered to myself. I ended the conversation there, promising to deal with it after the event. But the anger stayed, a low burn under my skin.

"I can't believe my little girl is all grown up and getting married. It only felt like yesterday when I was putting the Band-Aid over that gash on your knee, or teaching you to drive." "Well I still have the scar on my knee, and I will never look at reverse parking the same way. So don't worry about it, Pops. It's just a piece of paper," I dismiss dryly as I flick my hair back behind my shoulders. "But thanks, Daddy, I couldn't do this without you." Dad should be getting emotional tomorrow, at the wedding. It's only the rehearsal tonight, so there's no time for anything emotional. I just need tonight to go according to plan, like all the other weddings I have coordinated.

I want you to be beautiful later at our wedding. I miss you so bad . . . Love, Lawrence My face heats up. I could not help but shudder while reading the letter. Wait, I need to tell Mom and Dad as well as Cindy and the whole troop about my wedding. I took my cellphone out of the bag and dialed our house’s number. “Hello?” Sita’s voice answered. “Good morning. This is Margaux. Is Mom there?” “Oh, they left early earlier with Clarence. They said they would go to church after they went for a walk. Why, Ate?”

I took it up and started reading again. “Hi my son, I know your aunt Marley has been taking good care of you so I have nothing to worry about. I know you may hate or despise me so much but there's always a reason for everything. I want you to stay strong and never back out. I don't want to be your weakness but your strong point, I hope you don't despise me even more after reading this letter. You must be wondering what made a mother leave her son at such a young age, I'm sorry I couldn't tell you the truth but I never abandoned you. Your father and I left for your betterment, I love you from my heart and I'm sorry to break this unfortunate news to you, we won't be attending your wedding. I k

Except Leon, who would be officiating the marriage. Then Troy walked down the isle, and it was time for me and Raven to go. “I fucking love you, Raven.” I said, feeling choked up. “I know, dad.” Raven said. “Please don’t make me cry. If you cry, I'll cry.” I scoffed, “I’m not crying.” I was holding back the tears for dear life. As I walked my little daughter to her future husband, I didn't even notice the people we were passing. She is my baby, even though she’s twenty now. In a way, all of them still feel like my babies.

I looked into his earnest eyes, a tide of conflicting emotions welling up inside me. “I’ll try,” I murmured. “I’ll try to love you.” David’s smile warmed the room more than sunlight. “That’s enough.” He kissed my forehead. “After today, everything will be better. Matthew will never be able to hurt you again.” At eleven o’clock, the ceremony began. I took my father’s arm and walked slowly toward the altar. The wedding march swelled as every guest rose to their feet. “My daughter is finally marrying someone worthy of her trust,” my father said, his voice thick with emotion.

I'm a complete mess. “Miss Greene, are you ready?” a loud voice asked as loud knocks on the door came through, that brought back my attention. Right, it's my wedding day. I looked at my daughter and she just smiled. “Just a minute,” I answered then pecked a kiss at my daughter's cheek. “Come on, honey. It's time.” I stood up as I held my daughter’s hand. It will all be okay Hailey. It will all be okay. I said to myself.
