DOMINICI had survived a truck crashing into my car, days in a hospital bed, and five years of believing my wife was dead. But nothing hurt as much as running away from my own children.I could still see Catherine standing near the school gate, her face pale, her eyes fixed on me as if she had seen a ghost. For one foolish second, I had wanted to run to her. I wanted to hold her, touch her face, and ask how she had dared to leave me in a world where every morning began with the memory of losing her. I wanted to demand answers for the nights I had spent staring at her photograph, for the birthday candles I had blown out alone, for the grave I had visited even when there was no body beneath the earth. Then I saw the men watching from the cars, and I remembered the warning. If I stayed, I could put her and the children in danger. So I turned and ran. I had watched Catherine disappear from my life without understanding why. Today, I had seen her alive, only to lose her a second time before
