On prom night, Peter and Sally made a vow: “Ten years from now, Christmas Eve, Times Square. I promise I’ll be there.” A decade later, Peter kept his promise — but it wasn’t Sally who met him.

In Times Square, Peter searched for the yellow umbrella Sally promised to carry. Instead, a young girl approached and quietly asked, “Are you Peter?” When he confirmed, she said, “I’m your daughter. She… she’s not coming.”

Sally had passed away two years earlier from cancer. Her parents explained, “She didn’t want you to know… she thought you were happy.” Peter was heartbroken. “But I never stopped loving her,” he said. They gave him Sally’s diary, where she had written, “She never stopped loving you, Peter.”

Peter embraced the girl, Betty, saying, “You’re my daughter!” She nodded, adding, “Mom said I look like you.” He replied, “You look like your mom too… just as beautiful as she was.”

Peter brought Betty home, vowing never to let her go. At Sally’s grave, Betty whispered, “She’d be happy we found each other.” Peter held her close and promised again, “I’ll never let you go.”
