I didn't know about Ava until the next morning, and even then, only because Lena mentioned it in passing while going through Noah's schedule at the breakfast table, her tone so light I almost missed the weight of it.

"Security flagged something on last night's feed," she said, sliding a tablet across to Noah between sips of his coffee. "A woman loitering across the street for almost an hour. Left before midnight. Wanted you to see the still, in case it's relevant."

Noah glanced at the screen, a

    "Where are you right now?" I was already moving, snatching my keys off the counter with a hand that wouldn't stop shaking. "Mom, tell me exactly where you are.""In the ambulance. They let me ride." Her voice cracked in pieces. "He was reading the paper, Jasmine. He just stopped mid-sentence and the paper slid off his lap.""I'm coming. Stay with him. Keep talking to him.""He can't hear me.""Talk anyway."Noah had my coat in his hands before I turned around. He didn't say a word about the dress or the ten feet or the conversation we'd just finished in the lobby. He simply held the coat open, and I stepped into it like I'd done ten thousand times before."Driver's downstairs," he said. "I called ahead.""You don't have to come.""Jasmine." He looked at me, steady and a little hurt. "Please don't make me argue that.""Sorry." I pressed my forehead against his chest for one second. "Come with me."The drive was a blur of red lights and my own breathing. Halfway there, Noah took my hand

    I finished the speech on autopilot, my voice steady, my eyes drifting back to that face in the last row more often than I wanted. The applause was warm and long. I thanked the room, stepped down, and let Charlotte hug me before I even reached my seat."You okay?" Noah murmured, his hand finding mine. He had followed my eyeline the way he always did, and his jaw had already gone tight. "Is that who I think it is?""It is.""I'll handle it.""No." I squeezed his hand. "I'll talk to him. But you can stand where you can see me.""Jasmine.""I'm asking you to be near, not in between." I held his gaze. "You taught me that difference."Something in his face gave, reluctantly. "Ten feet," he said. "Not one more."Ryan was waiting in the lobby when I came out, alone by a window, hat in his hands like a man at a funeral. His hair had gone fully white. He was thinner than I remembered, and the easy charm that used to fill every room he entered had been worn down to something quieter. He straight

    "Married," I repeated, laughing with genuine delight. "Ava, that's wonderful. Who is it?""His name's Marcus…" She caught herself, laughing. "Not our Marcus, obviously. A different one. She met him during her residency. He's a pediatric oncologist, apparently kind in exactly the way that terrified and delighted me the first time I met him.""When did all this happen?" I asked, still catching up to the sheer velocity of time. "Wasn't she just starting medical school?""That was six years ago, Jasmine," Ava said, laughing. "I know. I keep having the same disbelief. She's twenty-eight now. A whole grown woman, apparently, with a fiancé and opinions about venue lighting."We spent the following months deep in wedding planning once again, though this time comfortably from the sidelines— Lily, thoughtful and deliberate the way she'd always been, handling most decisions herself with occasional consultation, the whole extended family gathering periodically to celebrate milestones large and sm

    I stared at the message through the applause still echoing around me, Noah noticing my expression shift and leaning in immediately."What is it?"I showed him the phone, and his jaw tightened, though he kept his voice low, careful not to disrupt the celebration still unfolding around Charlotte."We report it," he said simply. "Tonight. But Jasmine — don't let it swallow this moment for her. Not yet."I nodded, tucking the phone away, and forced myself back into the celebration, watching Charlotte glow with pride as students lined up to shake her hand, local press capturing photos of the finished space. It took everything in me not to pull her aside immediately, but I trusted Noah's instinct— this night belonged to her, and the threat, whatever it turned out to be, could wait until morning.Detective Osei took the message seriously when we reported it the next day, tracing the number quickly to a burner phone purchased in cash, the trail going cold almost immediately."I want to be can

    "Send me a photo of the note," I said, my hands already shaking. "And call the police immediately, if you haven't already.""I did," Charlotte said, her voice steadier now, though I could hear the fear still threading through it. "They're taking it seriously, given the fire. They want to interview me tomorrow.""We're coming," I said, glancing at Noah, who was already reaching for his phone to check flight availability. "Tonight, if we can get a flight."We landed in Detroit just after midnight, Charlotte waiting for us at the small airport with red-rimmed eyes but a composure that made my chest ache with pride even amid the fear. She'd grown so much, so quickly, and yet in this moment she looked, unmistakably, like my daughter again — young, frightened, needing her parents close."I keep thinking about what the note said," she admitted, once we were settled in the rental car. "'Doesn't belong to your family's city.' Mom, do you think this is connected to something from your past? Or

    "Mom," Charlotte said, her voice practically vibrating through the phone. "I did it. I finished the proposal. The design school… I actually wrote the whole business plan, the curriculum outline, everything. I want to show you and Dad this weekend. I think I'm ready to actually start building it." "That's incredible," I said, already reaching for Noah's arm to get his attention. "Come home this weekend. We'll go through every page." She arrived Friday evening, laptop bag slung over her shoulder, practically glowing with the particular energy of someone who'd finally turned an abstract dream into something concrete. We spread her proposal across the kitchen island— projected enrollment numbers, a tiered scholarship structure modeled after the foundation's own, partnerships she'd already sketched out with three manufacturers willing to offer apprenticeships. "This is remarkably thorough," Noah said, flipping through the financial projections with visible pride. "Charlotte, this r
