Ethan’s gaze carried a faint, unreadable depth. “What, thinking of doing what you used to do? Starving yourself whenever

you’r

unhappy?”

Micah gave an awkward smile and took the chance to say, “Is she really that dramatic?”

“Yeah. She is.”

As he said it, Ethan was staring straight into Dawn’s eyes.

That deep, boundless look felt like it could pull her in.

Dawn heard her heartbeat growing louder. She clenched her fingers and asked in a low voice, “Did you hear everything just now?”

Ethan lifted a hand, undid a button, walked a few steps, and sat down on the couch. His sharp eyes held something she couldn’t quite read as he looked at her.

“Hear what?”

The air tightened instantly.

Dawn didn’t speak. She didn’t know where to start. When he said “hear what,” did he really hear nothing at all, or was he waiting for her to come clean?

She didn’t know.

She couldn’t read this man, just like he couldn’t read her right now.

They each hid their own secrets, about to step back into marriage.

The more Micah watched, the more dangerous the atmosphere felt. He grabbed a tissue from the bedside and tossed it at Dawn. “So you said a couple of bad things about Ethan. What are you feeling guilty for?”

“Really?”

The ending note was light and drawn out.

The man smiled faintly. “So you were talking behind my back?”

That alone told her he hadn’t heard anything.

Micah let out a breath and rolled his eyes on purpose. “What else could it be? With how timid Dawn is, she can’t hide anything from you.”

Ethan hummed in reply and glanced at the woman with her head lowered. From this angle, her features sat in a hazy shadow, unreal somehow.

“Eat.”

One simple word wiped everything clean.

Dawn relaxed her hand. There was still warmth in her palm from clenching it too hard.

At that moment, she had to admit that no matter how much she’d grown, she still couldn’t beat this man at mind games.

If she ever could, it would only be because he allowed it.

Micah could only have chicken soup for now. As he ate, he kept sneaking glances over, his complaints never stopping. Because of that, the noise drowned out everything else. Suspicion and concealment were quietly pushed aside without a word.

That night, Dawn stayed to keep watch.

She’d originally wanted Ethan to go home, but she didn’t insist in the end and let it be.

There were two hospital beds in the room, side by side.

Ethan handled work on the couch. Dawn lay on her side on the bed, chatting with Micah across from her.

“When we were little, Mom used to ask me all the time if she should give you a little brother. I always said no. I was afraid that once there was another kid, Mom and Dad wouldn’t love me as much.”

As she spoke, she smiled, a bit regretful.

“If I’d known, I would’ve said yes.”

Back then, hearing that answer must’ve hurt Mom.

Her son was nowhere to be found. She didn’t know how he was doing. And she couldn’t even get a hopeful answer from her daughter.

Micah turned his head and looked at her, snorting softly. “Did Mom and Dad really not give you enough love?”

“They did.”

Before she knew the truth, Dawn had always thought her family was the textbook definition of perfect.

She smiled at the boy across from her. The more she looked, the more she felt how much he really resembled her. “But that’s how it always goes on TV. Once there’s a second kid, the oldest gets ignored.”

“Wow, Dawn, you were watching stuff like that when you were that little?”

“What nonsense are you talking about? I was watching dramas with Mom!”

“Mom actually watched that soapy junk?”

“Uh… a little.”

…

They looked at each other and smiled. Something shimmered in their eyes.

Talking about these things so lightly made it feel as if they’d once shared a happy life together, as if Vera had never suffered, as if… everything could start over.

Micah didn’t really know the woman named Vera.

Everything he’d heard came from Andy.

Andy had said, “She was the most beautiful and fearless woman I’ve ever seen.

“She was very smart.

“All her ideas were wild, but once she decided on something, she’d do it. And she could also put everything aside to cook for the man she loved. She was a very strange person.

“She…”

Whether she was good or bad, Micah had never seen it for himself.

Micah’s Adam’s apple bobbed as he stared at the woman across from him, like he was seeing another face he’d imagined countless times.

He suddenly called out hoarsely, “Dawn.”

“Yeah?”

Dawn shifted up a little. “Are you uncomfortable anywhere?”

“No.

“I just wanted to call you,” he said.

Dawn suddenly felt her eyes heat up. She reached out a hand toward him. The distance was just right for their fingers to meet. “I won’t ever leave you alone again, Micah. You can always

trust me.”

Micah’s breathing stalled. Then he awkwardly pulled his hand back.

“Can you not be so gentle? It’s kind of creepy.”

Huh?

This kid!

Dawn didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She leaned over and gave him a light smack. “You really can’t take a nice word or two, can you? Go to sleep already. It’s past midnight.”
