14 Nicki and I are walking out of the reception area as the bridal party surrounds us on the staircase. She lets go of my hand and runs ahead to take pictures with some of her friends. I am left standing alone on the top of staircase, listening to my friends cheer and throw white gardenias all through the air. One of my groomsmen comes up behind to start guiding me down the stairs towards Nicki and the limo. I am about on the next step when my shoe catches on something. I clasp my hand on the nearest railing and l tilt my shoe upward to see what is holding me back. I look down to find a torn sticker on the bottom of one of my black suede shoes. The sticker contains a picture of a sunset, from the only brand of Club Soda that I had ever known.
