A Surprising Invitation
When I opened the door to find my dad, Robert, standing there, his presence was the last thing I expected. “Katie,” he said, looking more uncomfortable than I’d ever seen him. I invited him in, my mind already spinning with questions. His nervous glances around the room only heightened my curiosity until I finally asked, “What’s going on?” The hesitation in his eyes was telling—I didn’t know what was coming, but I could sense it was important and somehow connected to the wedding chaos.

Dad sat across from me at the kitchen table, fidgeting with his hands. “Katie, we need to talk about Madison,” he began, his voice trembling slightly. My heart sank, bracing for whatever was coming. “It’s about finances,” he continued, the word lingering in the air like a storm cloud. I stayed quiet, listening intently, sensing there was more beneath the surface than just the usual family drama. His eyes shifted between me and the kitchen floor, as if searching for the right way to explain.
