Homecoming
The Promises You Made
Today is the day I marry my best friend. We have been together for what feels like forever and we tell eachother everything. There is one thing I have never mentioned to her; that I have a daughter. You see I haven’t seen or spoken Kenna since she was 3; not that I didn’t want to see her, it just got too hard to beg her mom to let me see her for even a few minutes. I have sent money and letter frequently though. Of course I never get a reply to the letters. So life has moved on for me and I have fallen in love with another woman along with her children.
In one hour I will be a married man, hopefully it will help me make a new life for myself. I mean I haven’t spoken to my old life in 13 years so it’s definitely time to move on in my opinion. I need to be truly happy again without faking it half the time.
“It’s time. Ready?” Jack said as he broke me out of my trance.
“Yeah, let’s get this over with,” I replied very quickly.
“Dude are you okay?” I heard Jack ask me. I must look like how I feel, nervous and sad.
“Yeah. Just wish things could have gone different.”
“What do you mean?”
“I just wish Daniella could meet Kennadee and she could be here to share in the joy.”
“Well she can’t so it’s time to start over.”
“Yeah, you’re right man. Thanks for this and thanks for being my best man,” I replied with a smile.
Today was just the beginning of my life. I love Daniella and her kids, they are my life (other then the band) now. It is my goal in life to make her happy which I am going to try really hard to do so. These kids are my second chance at fatherhood, so I should be happy that I get this chance. I now have the big house, 2.5 kids, a wife, and a white picket fence; which is suppose to be the American dream so I can’t complain.
The ceremony went fairly quickly and the reception went even faster. I was immediately ecstatic when I saw Daniella walk down the aisle. And I don’t think this feeling will go away anytime soon. Now we are off to Mexico for a mini-honeymoon for the weekend and on Monday we will be back in MD so I can go to my gig at Recher’s Theater.

Notes
Remember this it'll come into play in a chapter or two :)Anyone want to place bets on who is Kenna's dad? Oh and let me know what you think so far :)
I know it is short but it is just some backround
