Salesperson: This dress is one of my favorites. One not everyone can pull off. However, I thought with the combination of your height, soft, yet curvy build you would fill this dress just right. I must say it looks better on you than it did on the model that sold me on the dress. To really bring out the colors coordinate your flowers, jewelry and any special touches you use in your hair.

Kit: That is the dress baby sis. You look just beautiful. Daddy would be so pleased for both of us.

Bette: I agree this is the best of the bunch.

She makes minor marks for alterations. Kit models her two dresses again and they are able to make her final selection quickly and choose the vail as well. The saleperson writes up the order and Bette reaches for her wallet.

Bette: Daddy is buying these.

Kit: What are you talking about?

Bette: When I settled his estate there was a wedding fund set aside for us. So Daddy is will be at the wedding in the form of this dress, my dress and Angelica’s.  At first I found it ironic as he knew I’d never have a wedding like he wanted. I’d actually kind of forgotten it was there until you told me about Jean. The more I saw of the two of you I knew this day would come and that Daddy would have loved Jean. Kitten he gave us a lot of grief, but we were his girls. He wanted what he thought was best for us, we can’t fault him for that.

The sisters fall into a tearful embrace and even the salesperson is in tears.

Salesperson: You hear a lot of heartwarming stories in this business, but that is one of the sweetest I’ve heard. Your Dad sounds like quite the pistol, but his heart was in the right place.

Kit: Yea, he did what he thought was best, my sister and I just didn’t always agree. But we all were at peace in his final days and this is just a blessing. Not just he money, but to know he wanted to be there for us in this way, that he’d planned to be there.

They finally settle the tab and head out.
