The story
On her wedding day, Chloe's bouquet is found with every rose decapitated, and a small girl runs down the aisle shouting that Chloe is a bad woman who stole her daddy. The child clings to Mark, calling him Daddy, while his mother arrives, a woman old enough to be the girl's grandmother. Mark had told Chloe his parents were dead.
The woman, Brenda, insists Penny is Mark's child, and Mark admits he lied about his mother. He swears he never cheated, and later explains that Penny is really Brenda's daughter, raised as his to hide a small-town shame. Chloe finishes the wedding, but that night she finds Mark asleep with Penny curled beside him.
Brenda and Penny stay for days, and Chloe counts them down, ready to drive them to the train station herself.

Then a little kid ran down the aisle, pointed at my husband, and screamed, "Daddy!"
I was still processing that when the child's "mother" showed up—a woman who had to be at least sixty.
I just wanted to sit down and grab some popcorn.

The cuts were clean, precise. Every single rose had been decapitated. Someone had taken scissors to it.
"What are we going to do? The ceremony starts in ten minutes!
