Walking Away

I didn’t argue further.

I couldn’t.

Because some lines, once crossed, change everything.

I left the house and went to pick Sarah up from school.

When she got into the car, she smiled.

“Dad, I can’t wait for your wedding!” she said excitedly. “I think I’ll look gorgeous in whatever dress Nora chooses.”

I smiled back.

But it wasn’t real.

Inside, I felt completely lost.
