Now those words kept repeating in my head. I looked at my husband.
“Robert, if you’ve done something to our children, I need to know.” The continuation read in the comments ‼️‼️👇👇
He turned toward the window.
“I haven’t done anything to hurt them.”
“Then why would you say I would never see them again?”
He closed his eyes briefly.
“Because I wanted you to understand how much things are about to change.”
That answer made no sense to me.
I spent the rest of the flight staring at the seat in front of me, fighting back tears.
When the captain announced that we would soon begin our descent, my hands were trembling.
Robert reached for them again.
“Mary, whatever happens when we land, please let me explain before you get angry.”
I pulled my hands into my lap.
“I’ve been married to you for fifty-two years. You owe me the truth.”
