The Moment Everything Changed
I looked at my fiancée.
“Why would you separate my daughter from us?” I asked.
She shrugged casually.
“Relax. It’s only a few hours. She’s a kid — she doesn’t need first class.”
Her tone wasn’t just dismissive.
It was cold.
Like Lily was an inconvenience.
At that moment, I realized something painful.
She wasn’t trying to build a family.
She was trying to push my daughter out of it.
