“I’m so proud of you,” she whispered.

Later that night she drove us to the cemetery.

The grass was still damp from the afternoon rain, and the sky was turning golden around the edges when we arrived.

I crouched in front of Dad’s headstone and placed both hands on the marble, the same way I used to rest my hand on his arm when I wanted him to listen.

“I did it, Dad,” I said quietly. “I made sure you were with me the whole day.”

We stayed there until the light faded completely.

Dad never got to see me walk into that prom hall.

But I made sure he was dressed for it anyway.
