Redemption Was Never Mine

As I gazed at this self-righteous face before me, I suddenly had nothing left to say.
Back when we were so poor we could only squeeze into a tiny rental, I used to watch brides holding weddings in churches with envy. I had once joked, "Listen, I'm an angel sent from heaven, so you have to treat me well. One day, I want to have my wedding there."
Ethan had pulled me into his arms, his eyes red rimmed as he swore, "Nicole, I'll give you the grandest wedding in that church."
Now, the church was still there. There would still be a grand wedding as well.
