"I am sorry that we started rough in the beginning. Please don't have any hard feelings against us, Mr Bell. You can understand that we were shocked and hurt.
But in the end, we had to submit to our son's wish for the sake of his happiness. And his happiness lies with your lovely daughter."
At Madison Sander's words, I remained silent for the sake of both my father and the special day of my life.
Dad too sensed the hostility in her voice, yet he handled the situation as he always handled our lives.
"Mrs Sanders, we are now going to be relatives. We shouldn't think about the past and let go of all the misunderstandings between us.
Our children are happy, and what else matters to us as parents than their smiling faces?
I request you to not think about the past and welcome the bright future of our children. I hope we will get along too."
That was my hero! Who knew how to deal with situations and stay humble without rolling at others' feet.
