Chapter 20: The Aisle

On Saturday at two o'clock the main hall of Frost Lodge smelled of pine boughs and candle wax.

Two hundred people sat waiting in folding chairs.

Snow fell outside the tall windows in big slow flakes.

The fireplace was banked with white roses.

I stood at the front in the dark green dress, holding a velvet box in both hands.

Across the aisle, at Kaspar's side, Henrik stood in a charcoal suit with his tie knotted perfectly.

He had tied it himself, at the mirror, and then sent a picture to prove it.

My cheek still wore its bandage, and nobody had said a single word about it.

The string quartet stopped, and the doors at the back of the hall opened.

Everyone stood.

Elsa came in on her father's arm.

She wore a plain ivory dress with long sleeves.

Her cream knit hat sat over her light-brown waves, because she had refused to give it up.
