"Humility"

Pao attends the ceremony, and considers the closeness of his and Kealey's relationship (see "Quotes," p. 216). Shortly afterwards, Esther (his daughter with Gloria) gets married to a man from India, Rajinder. Pao is present for all the preparations, his narration revealing his many contemplations about his relationship with her, how it really only began after Mui was taken from him, and how glad he is that over the last few years, Esther has become comfortable enough with him to call him "daddy." On the big day, he walks her down the aisle, and makes a speech at the reception in which he includes a version of his contemplations, surprised to find himself, Esther and Gloria all weeping. Afterwards, Esther asks him to dance and he does, feeling like he was in "a dream [he] didn't even know [he] had had come true."
