Diana felt a whirlwind of emotions as she prepared to marry Tom—happiness, excitement, and a hint of nervousness. But just as she was about to walk down the aisle, her five-year-old son, Ethan, brought everything to a standstill with a single word: “I object!” The stunned silence of the guests quickly turned into murmurs of confusion. What could little Ethan possibly know that could unravel Diana’s perfect day? The day had started in the cozy cottage by the garden, where Diana was surrounded by her bridesmaids. The air was filled with the scent of fresh flowers, and the sound of laughter echoed softly. Her bridesmaids, dressed in lavender, fluttered around her, making last-minute adjustments to her hair and dress. Through the window,
Diana could see the guests arriving, their joyful chatter filling the air. The day had a dreamlike quality, and she couldn’t help but smile as she thought about the journey that had brought her to this moment. Tom had come into Diana’s life three years ago, at a time when she needed him most. He had been her rock, her confidant, and, most importantly, a wonderful father figure to Ethan. The bond between Tom and Ethan was extraordinary—they were inseparable, spending hours playing together, building Lego castles, and going on little adventures in the park. Seeing them together always warmed Diana’s heart. “Mama, look at me!” Ethan’s voice pulled Diana back to the present. She turned to see him standing proudly in his tiny suit, his blue eyes sparkling with excitement. He looked so grown-up and handsome that Diana’s eyes filled with tears. “You look so smart, Ethan,” she said, kneeling to his level. “Are you ready to help me today?” “Yes, Mama!” he exclaimed with a wide grin. “I’m gonna be the best ring bearer ever!”
Diana hugged him tightly, her heart swelling with love. This day wasn’t just about her and Tom; it was about their little family and the future they were building together. The door to the cottage opened, and Kelly, one of Diana’s bridesmaids, peeked in. “Diana, it’s time. Are you ready?” Taking a deep breath, Diana nodded. “Yes, I’m ready.” As they stepped out into the garden, Diana was overwhelmed by the beauty of it all. The aisle was lined with flowers, creating a picturesque path to the altar where Tom stood, waiting. The guests, all smiles and warm greetings, were ready to witness this special day. “Ethan, are you ready?”
Diana whispered, squeezing his little hand. “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.
