the rest of the story
Ok, so, back to the scene in the film.
Rhia has been holding in her pain and anger and disgust over this uncle who molested her when she was a child. She finally breaks and tells her family. Her other uncle, who is like her father because her father died, is heartbroken because he loves this brother in law very much, but he also loves Rhia like his own child.
For a while he convinces Rhia to just bear it and get through the wedding but in this scene, he breaks.
He can't handle anymore what this man has done to her and he refuses to allow his presence. With inside-twisting emotion he tells him to leave, destroying the connection between families. He goes over to Rhia and kisses her on the forehead. She is thunderstruck and her eyes well up with tears.
And so do mine.
I wish I had someone like that to protect me when I get hurt. Someone to make things right in the end.
And my insides start to twist and expand until I can't hardly breathe. The pain rises and falls. But I don't release it until it goes away on its own. Until my tears dry on my face instead of being wiped away. I sit blurry eyed and lonely.
I miss my dad.
So, you see, this is what might happen when you are caught off guard. But it is good to be caught sometimes not guarding. It shows that you are human.

off guard
Being caught off guard
You know sometimes when you've either finally gotten comfortable or finally decided to deal with things the way they are and then you get caught off guard? That's an interesting way to describe it- caught off guard- like you're guarding your heart from things that might give it pain.
I was caught off guard last night watching Monsoon Wedding. I was half watching, half cutting magazine pictures and pasting them together and didn't expect anything but to enjoy myself.
There's a scene in the movie where the father interrupts a man who hurt his neice.
