An offer
Krysten called her father one day and asked him finally if he would be the one who would give a toast at her wedding. At first, he was surprised that she would ask him, knowing that his wife was much better at these things. But he knew that she knew that he always wanted to speak at her wedding.
He accepted the offer without hesitation and was proud to be given this honor. But now he knew that he had a weight on his shoulders and a responsibility to give a great speech. He couldn’t let the other family outdo him, especially not on his own daughter’s wedding day.
