Molly, a high school student who is 17 years old, had been having a rough time. Not only was she having a hard time getting over the death of her mother, but she also felt lonely and separated as prom season got closer. Molly’s mood was at an all-time low. She had no plans for a date and felt like an outsider because of her condition..
Then, though, something strange happened. Danny, Molly’s distant father, showed up at the funeral for her mother, and that event changed her life forever. Danny was determined to make things right with his daughter and be there for her, even though they had a rough past. He suggested that Molly move in with him. She was hesitant at first, but she soon felt better with his care and support.
Molly’s sadness and anger reached a boiling point as prom night got closer. Because of her disability, she thought no one would want to take her to prom. Danny could tell his daughter was upset, so he had a treat for her. He drove Molly to prom and helped her get out of his truck and onto the dance floor. People were shocked at first, but as Danny and Molly danced together, their love and happiness spread to everyone else.
Everything about the night went so well, and Danny’s efforts touched everyone there. Molly loved and was proud of her father so much. He had become a hero in the community overnight. Danny had been working hard behind the scenes to make Molly’s life better, but she didn’t know it. He worked two jobs to save money for her surgery, and people noticed how hard he worked.
In a surprise show of appreciation, Danny was given a $10,000 cheque by the parents of Molly’s friends. They wanted to show how much they cared about his daughter’s health. That Danny’s love and loyalty had such a big effect on those around him was shown by the gift. Molly thought about how lucky she was to have a dad like Danny who would do anything to make her happy.
