My Daughter Was Getting Married, And When I Asked When The Wedding Would Be, My Son In Law Said It

The question felt ordinary when I asked it. My daughter was getting married, or so I thought. We were standing in the kitchen, and there was a half-empty coffee mug near the sink when I finally asked when the wedding would be. My son-in-law looked at me for a second and said it had already happened. I laughed at first. I didn’t question it at first. Something about the way she avoided my eyes made it feel like I had missed more than a date. The wedding had already happened. The ceremony had already happened. Their life had already started moving forward. And somehow, I was hearing about it afterward. Days later, small things felt different. Short replies. Longer pauses. The way she said “we” instead of “I.” The wedding had already happened, and so had something else no one wanted to name. Maybe some conversations arrive too late. Or maybe they were never meant to happen at all.
