Most people can’t find the repaired section unless I point it out.
But I know exactly where it is.
And honestly?
I like that.
Because the tear became part of its story.
It survived.
Just like I did.
Regina never came back.
Dad followed through with the divorce.
My grandmother still insists she would’ve physically removed Regina from the church if Dad hadn’t acted when he did.
And now, when I look at that repaired veil, I don’t think about the humiliation.
I don’t think about the scene.
