The girl sat on a pew in the church by herself.
She watched as everyone prepared to start the wedding. The grooms brother had come from Baltimore to be the best man. He was struggling with getting his tie clipped on. He looked up at her and asked if she would help him. She sat there and just looked at him unspeaking. She was wishing that she could disappear. She decided to just pretend that she didn't hear him.
Her mother spoke up. "Help him! She beamed.
The 15 year old blushed uncontrollably as she approached him. Her face felt hot from the embarrassment.
She reached up to try and figure out how to fix it. Her mother said, Smile!!! SMILE!!!! The girl smiled. Her mother snapped a picture. She seemed so proud.
The girl didn't realize that her mother had come up with a plan.
