“Yeah.” He nodded slowly and his eyes shifted to the mirro

“You sure?”

“I just had the opinion of the last fifteen years of my life shattered, and I realized how toxic and shitty I have been, but yeah, I’m okay.” He wiped his face as he drove. “I never really looked at it from your mom’s side. You know.” He kept his face turned to the road, but his eyes looked at me.

“I know.” I huffed out a laugh. “Neither did I until I knew all the facts. I thought she just moved on quickly. from living with my dad and mom to living with Morgan within weeks. I was a kid. ”

“You have to. You nearly ripped the plane apart. What do you think he will do when he finds out the truth…” Ronnie shivered. “Yeah. I wasn’t going to tell you at all.”
