Emma grew.
She became confident.
Funny.
Fearless.
Clara and I grew closer.
One evening, we stood on the terrace.
“You're happy,” I said.
“Yes.”
“Why?”
She looked at me.
“You came back.”
“I didn't know I had left.”
She smiled.
“You were never gone.”
I touched her hand.
“I love you.”
She cried.
“I love you too.”

She carried the rings.

No guns.
No guards at the ceremony.
No business.
Just family.
After the wedding, Emma looked at me.
“You're really my dad?”
I smiled.
“Really.”
She hugged me.
“Good.”
I laughed.

For the first time, the house felt complete.
