There have always been touching tales of reunions after many years apart. This is one such story. Emilys father left the family when she was only four years old. Her mother raised her alone, but the absence of a complete family weighed on young Emilys heart. From her earliest days, she tried to help her mother with everything she could, even seeking part-time work because there was no provider in the house. Because of this, Emily hardly had any friends, rarely went out in town, and grew up a quiet, solitary child.
Only when her mother retired did Emily finally find time for herself. That was when she met a young man. Before long, she was introduced to his family, and after some months, Thomas proposed to Emily. Together, they began planning a grand weddingthe wedding Emily had dreamed of since her childhood.
When it came time to draw up the guest list, Emily thought of inviting her own father. But she had neither his address nor his telephone number. Thomas suggested that Emily give the invitation to her uncle, her fathers brother, who would surely know where to send it.
Due to a small but unfortunate mistake, Emily ended up running late to the registry office. Rain was falling outside. She threw her coat over her dress and dashed out into the street. Then quite suddenly, she spotted a car nearby, beside which stood her father. Without hesitating, she climbed in. She cried all the way there, tears she had saved for so many years. At long last, the moment she had been waiting for had arrived, and it seemed there was much between them that needed to be said.
