It was finally here- Anna's wedding day, the day she had dreamed about and planned for months.
The small and picturesque church was crowded with friends and family.
Sunlight poured through the stained-glass windows, and the gentle music of stringed quartet filled the air.
Anna walked down the aisle toward David.
Joy surged within her.
This was the moment for which she had waited so long.
He gently took her hand, and they turned toward the altar.
But as the minister began to lead Anna and David through their vows, the unthinkable happened.
A girl stood up in the middle of the congregation, walked quietly to the altar, and took David's other hand.
Another girl approached and stood next the first, followed by another.
Soon, a chain of six girls stood by him as he repeated his vows to Anna.
Anna felt her lip beginning to quiver as tears welled up in her eyes.
"Is this some kind of joke?" she whispered to David.
"i'm...i'm sorry, Anna," he said, staring at the floor.
"who are these girls, David? Whats going on?" she gasped.
"they're girls from my past," he answered sadly.
"Anna they don't mean anything to me now...but i've given a part of my heart to each of them."
"i thought your heart was mine," she said.
"it is, it is," he pleaded. "everything that's left is yours."
