Wedding dresses were traditionally white, so it was rare to see a lilac one.
Yvette Larson stepped forward toward the lilac dress. "This dress is beautiful!"
Just then, the boss of the boutique walked out. "You have a good eye, Miss, but this is the best gown we have here. However, this isn't available for rent—only for sale."
"Can you tell me if there's a story behind this gown?" For some reason, Yvette Larson felt as though her tears were going to fall as she gazed at that gown. She felt a surge of emotions within her.
"Of course. Legend has it that there was a couple deeply in love, and they made a promise never to let each other go. Yet, an accident separated them. Just like that, decades passed before the lady was eventually able to learn of news from the guy. She remained unmarried for her entire life, but she was afraid to meet him for fear that he had already gotten married and that she'd bother him by looking for him."
