As I lead her across the floor, and she doesn’t stumble over her feet, a smile starts to spread on her face until it looks like the sun just rose in her eyes. I’m so lost in the girl in my arms that I don’t notice the song ending and the next beginning. Tiana’s eyes lock with mine, and for a moment, there’s no nervousness to be seen on her face. So this is what she looks like when she’s happy.
