“Ready, Mommy,” he replied, his eyes wide with excitement. They began their walk down the aisle, the soft strains of music setting the tone for the moment. Diana could feel the eyes of the guests on them, their smiles adding to the joy of the day. Ethan, looking adorable in his suit, walked confidently beside her, his little hand firmly in hers.
As they approached the altar, Diana caught sight of Tom. His smile was broad, his eyes filled with love and happiness. The sight brought a tear to her eye. Tom was everything she had ever dreamed of, and today, they were about to make those dreams come true.“Daddy, look at me!” Ethan called out, his voice filled with delight.
Tom chuckled, his smile growing even wider. “I see you, champ. You look so smart!” Ethan puffed out his chest with pride. “I’m a big boy today!” Tom nodded, his eyes meeting Diana’s. The love in his gaze said it all—today was the beginning of their new life as a family. As they reached the altar, Tom took Diana’s hand, his grip strong and reassuring. “You look stunning, Diana,” he whispered. “Thank you, Tom,” Diana replied with a smile. “I can’t believe this is real.” “It’s real,” he said, smiling back. “And it’s perfect.”The officiant began the ceremony, guiding them through their vows. “Do you, Tom, take Diana to be your wife?” “I do,” Tom replied, his eyes never leaving Diana’s. “And do you, Diana, take Tom to be your husband?” “I do,” Diana said, her voice thick with emotion. Just as the officiant was about to pronounce them husband and wife, a small, determined voice rang out.
“I object!” The crowd gasped, and Diana turned to see Ethan standing there, his face serious. Her heart skipped a beat. Why would Ethan object? “Ethan, sweetheart, why do you object?” Diana asked, kneeling down to his level. Ethan held up a small, worn-out rattle, his little hand trembling slightly. “Tom has another family, Mama! I heard him talking to his mommy about his daughter. Is Tom cheating on you, Mommy?” he asked, his voice filled with confusion.The crowd’s murmurs grew louder as Diana’s stomach knotted. She turned to Tom, her face pale. Tom looked as shocked as she felt. He opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out. The officiant seemed equally bewildered, glancing between the couple and the guests. “Ethan, what do you mean?” Diana asked gently, trying to make sense of the situation. “What did you hear?” Ethan looked down at the ground. “I heard Tom talking to his mommy about his daughter. He said he has a daughter, but I didn’t know about her. Why didn’t he tell us, Mommy?”Diana took a deep breath, trying to process what Ethan was saying. She glanced at Tom, who finally found his voice. “Guys, I can explain,” Tom began, his voice trembling slightly. But before he could continue, Diana raised her hand to stop him. “Ethan, are you sure you heard correctly?” “Yes, Mommy,” Ethan insisted, his face earnest. “Tom said he has a daughter.” The crowd was buzzing now, whispers of confusion and concern spreading like wildfire. “Did you hear what the little boy said?” one guest murmured to another. “Is there really another family?” another asked, their voice filled with disbelief. Diana turned to Tom, her eyes demanding the truth. “Tom, I think it’s time you explained what’s going on.” Tom stepped forward, taking Diana’s hand in his. He looked out at the crowd, then back at Ethan. “Ethan, buddy, you’re right—I did talk about a baby, but it’s not what you think,” Tom said, his voice calm but firm. The crowd fell silent, everyone holding their breath for what was to come next. Tom took a deep breath, then turned to the guests with a wide smile. “Everyone, we’re expecting a baby. Ethan, you’re going to be a big brother!” A collective gasp rippled through the crowd, followed by a wave of cheers and applause. The tension that had gripped the garden melted away, replaced by joy and excitement. “Really? I’m going to be a big brother?” Ethan asked, his face lighting up with joy. Diana hugged him tightly, tears of happiness streaming down her face. “Yes, sweetheart, you’re going to be the best big brother ever.” Tom joined the embrace, wrapping his arms around both Diana and Ethan. “Ethan, I’m sorry if we confused you. We wanted to surprise everyone today.”Ethan’s eyes sparkled with understanding. “We’re having a little baby?” “That’s right, champ,” Tom said, laughing. “We’re having a baby.” The crowd continued to cheer, the atmosphere now filled with laughter and celebration. The officiant, smiling broadly, picked up where they had left off. “Well, this is certainly a special day! Let’s continue with the ceremony.” The vows were quickly completed, and Tom and Diana were pronounced husband and wife. Their kiss sealed the moment, a promise not just to each other but to the family they were creating. Later, as the sun set and bathed the garden in a golden glow, Diana watched Tom and Ethan playing together. A deep sense of happiness and contentment filled her.
