"Mommy, look! Those dresses are so pretty!" Sadie followed his gaze and saw a bridal shop's display, its elegant white gowns shimmering under the store lights.
"When I grow up, I'll buy you the most beautiful wedding dress," Averi declared in his sweet, innocent voice. Sadie's heart skipped a beat. Her eyes softened as she looked at her son, emotions swirling inside her.
She and Noah had already gone their separate ways. The thought of ever wearing a wedding dress again felt impossibly distant.
"That's so sweet of you, Averi. I'll thank you in advance," she said with a gentle smile, masking the tinge of sadness in her heart.
Just then, a young saleswoman from the bridal shop approached them, her tone enthusiastic.
"Excuse me, we're from True Love Bridal Shop, and we're currently running a special promotion. We can create a one-of-a-kind wedding gown for your beloved." The saleswoman looked at Sadie and Noah, beaming as she continued, "You two are truly a match made in heaven. And your son is just so adorable! What a nice family you have."
