Years of Tears

He cried at their wedding. He's the type of man who feels like men need to be strong all the time, but he cried at their wedding. He'd been through terrible things in his life. His brother died when he was young, after spending a long time in a coma. His mother died after that, when he was a teenager. His father had never really been in the picture... so his aunt took him in. His aunt's husband mistreated him and greedily tried to take his mother and brother's insurance money for himself. He liked my mom and dad, who were like a second aunt and uncle to him, because they didn't try to take his money. He stayed with us for a while. I was young enough not to truly realize what he was going through. I just thought it was awesome that he got to stay with us. After all that hardship, he found the woman that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with. He was so happy and grateful that he cried at his wedding. He asked me to be one of his maids of honor. I saw his tears
