The next day started like normal. I had breakfast in the kitchen with my mother before Lucy helped me get ready for school. Lucy didn't mention the letter and acted as if everything was normal which I was grateful for.
My father was away on business but would be returning today and I was internally very excited to see him again. I didn't want our relationship to turn out like how it had in my previous life. I knew now that deep down he loved me, even if he didn't show it outwardly. It wouldn't be like how it was before where I would always try to avoid him out of fear of disappointing him.
