The champagne danced in her veins. She clutched her drink, unable to stop smiling. Her parents were the best, and tonight was for them. Her father, retiring after a life of dedication, deserved a celebration, and she was going to make sure he got one.

She saw the microphone. Time to go. Time to express her feelings, to share the stories that painted a picture of her father. It was going to be fantastic.
