Claire drove for almost an hour without knowing where she was going. The roads blurred together after a while.

Her grip tightened on the steering wheel when Daniel’s face flashed in her mind again.

How long?

The look in his eyes when he realized she had the phone. For the first time in months, Claire didn’t feel weak after a fight with him. Usually she cried. Usually she replayed every word and wondered if she had pushed too far.

    Claire drove for almost an hour without knowing where she was going. The roads blurred together after a while. Her grip tightened on the steering wheel when Daniel’s face flashed in her mind again.How long?The look in his eyes when he realized she had the phone. For the first time in months, Claire didn’t feel weak after a fight with him. Usually she cried. Usually she replayed every word and wondered if she had pushed too far.Today, Daniel had lost control first and that changed something. Her phone buzzed on the passenger seat.It was Daniel.She stared at the screen until it stopped ringing.A second later, another call came in. She ignored that too. Then came the messages."Claire.Pick up the phone. Where are you?" She laughed quietly to herself. Now he cares about her. The irony almost made her sick.By the time she finally parked outside a small restaurant near the edge of town, the sun was already starting to disappear.The place was quiet, exactly what she needed. She ste

    For a moment, nobody moved.Ethan’s small arms stayed locked around Claire’s waist, his face buried against her side, and the sound of his breathing was the loudest thing in the room. Claire kept one hand pressed flat against the back of his head, holding him the way she had held him a thousand nights before, and for that one instant, the lawyers, the court officer, even Julia herself, seemed to fade into the background.Julia was the first to recover.She straightened, smoothed the front of her coat, and exchanged a brief glance with the taller of the two lawyers. It was enough. He stepped forward with a folder in hand, clearing his throat in the careful, practiced way of someone used to delivering unwelcome news in rooms that did not want him there.“Given the circumstances,” he began, “it would be best to proceed with the transfer this evening, as outlined in the order.”Claire’s head lifted sharply. “He’s not going anywhere tonight.”“Mrs. Bennett—”“I said no.” Her voice did not

    The atmosphere inside the house changed the moment Julia stepped in. Like her presence alone carried the authority that did not belong there and yet somehow expected obedience anyway.Claire stood near the staircase with the custody file still in her hand while Daniel remained a few feet away from her looking tense in a way he had not looked earlier.Julia, however, looked perfectly composed. She walked into the house slowly with two lawyers behind her and a court officer standing near the entrance. Her heels clicked softly against the floor while her expression remained calm and unreadable.She had expected chaos tonight. She expected tears and begging and maybe screaming from Claire.Instead, Claire stood there completely unmoved, pale,unshaken and somehow that unsettled Julia slightly.Her eyes moved briefly toward Daniel. He looked exhausted already.That was good, it meant he had done the difficult part before she arrived.Julia stopped a few feet away from Claire before speaking

    "Mummy!" Evangeline heard the loud call while her door was pushed open. Her eyes flew wide open immediately, fear clogging her heart at what trouble could make her child scream so loudly.Before Aurora could get to her on her bed, Evangeline was already sitting upright on the bed.Aurora snuggled her way into her arms, despite her school bag she still had attached to her back. Evangeline couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief at the sight of delight on her children's face. "Mummy, won't you be dropping us at school today?" Aurora asked while she freed herself from her mother's arms. Evangeline shook her head at first, then proceeded to adjust her rumpled school uniform and put her hair in order. "No, baby. I'm sorry," she finally answered. "Mummy has lots of work to do." she explained further, then carefully studied her daughter's expression and reaction. Aurora's face fell for a moment as she looked away in thought, then finally looked back at her mother. "Is that why you

    The tension between Daniel and Julia started showing up in small ways first, the kind that could be ignored if someone wanted to pretend hard enough.But Daniel was no longer good at pretending and Julia was no longer willing to ignore anything.It had only been a short time since she moved into the house officially, but already it felt like something inside the space had shifted in a way she did not expect. On paper, everything was exactly what she wanted. She had Daniel without hiding, she had access to the house, and she had Ethan under the same roof.But reality did not match the picture in her head.Daniel was physically present but mentally distant most of the time. He came home late, sat down quietly, and answered questions with short responses that carried no emotion. Even when he tried to act normal, it felt forced.Julia noticed it early, but she tried not to react at first.That evening, Daniel returned home later than usual. The sound of the door opening echoed through the

    All through the drive until Julian finally parked the car in the driveway of her house, neither of them said a word to each other.Even as much as Evangeline knew what the issue was, and tried to bring up conversations, Julian gave a cold reception."Aren't you going to come inside?" Evangeline stopped to ask the moment she had walked a few meters away from the car and didn't hear the sound of his footsteps."No. I don't think there's a need for that," he answered with a cold stare, then turned back to face the steering wheel in a bid to start the car.Evangeline swallowed the pain that choked her throat and turned to continue her steps inside.In about a few seconds of having troubled thoughts, she was quick to stop and run back towards the already moving vehicle."Julian!" she called out, but since the gate had already been opened down, it was easy for him to drive out completely.Evangeline paused to watch him drive off while her heart ached. She knew he heard her, but his heart ha
