Never Late, Never Away Chapter 807
Even though the little girl wasn’t particularly pretty, she was extremely adorable.
She was staring unblinkingly through the window of a shop, as though there was something she greatly cherished inside.
Vivian’s curiosity was piqued as she wondered what exactly deserved the girl’s unwavering attention.
Hence, she shot Finnick a glance, signaling for him to follow her forward, to which he nodded and complied.
Upon walking closer, her eyes widened in surprise as it was not what she expected at all.
The little girl was staring at a very beautiful wedding gown.
The gown did not have many extravagant decorations. It was just an uncomplicated design with simple color, but it looked pure and modest in a very alluring way.
Hence, it wasn’t all that strange that the little girl was fascinated by it.
When Vivian was young, she, too, had fantasized about wearing a beautiful wedding gown to walk down the aisle and marry the man she loved.
Looking at the look of awe on the girl’s face, she had the urge to ask her why she liked this wedding gown.
So, she crouched down and peered at the girl with a gentle gaze before vocalizing her curiosity.
But the girl’s answer came as a massive shock to her.
“My family is poor, so my mommy said no one will marry me when I grow up, so I’ve come here to look at this wedding dress.
“It’s really beautiful, but I feel sad that I won’t have the chance to wear it in the future. That’s why I want to look at it now so that I won’t have too many regrets in the future.”
After she finished speaking, tears pooled in her eyes, but she quickly blinked them away.
Vivian’s heart squeezed in her chest when she saw the girl trying so hard not to cry.
“It’s okay, sweetie, don’t cry. Every girl will get the chance to wear their dream wedding dress and marry their Prince Charming.”
Vivian wanted to comfort the little girl, but her brows furrowed slightly as she sensed something off.
After a moment, she realized where the problem lay. She never had a wedding, let alone wearing a wedding gown.
