I stare at him, trying to process what he just said, but it doesn’t land the way it should.
“You moved?” I finally ask, my voice quieter than I expect.
He nods once, his eyes briefly flicking toward me before returning to the road.
I keep looking at him, waiting for it to sink in but it doesn’t because I’m still in shock. That house wasn’t just any house. It was the house he shared with Chloe. They’d lived there long before the twins were even born. It was the house Chloe chose. The one she decorated, the one that he had turned into a shrine, so why did he leave?
“You moved?” I repeat, more to myself this time, before turning fully toward him. “Why?”
He exhales slowly, his grip tightening slightly on the steering wheel. For a moment, it looks like he might brush it off, but then his shoulders drop just a fraction.
“I couldn’t stay there,” he says finally. “Not after everything.”
There’s something heavy in his voice, something I don’t think I’ve ever heard before.
“I tried, Sierra. I told myself it was just a house. That I could deal with it, that I could put everything behind me and move on, but every time I walked into a room, I felt suffocated… She was everywhere, in every room and every space and it just felt like her ghost was clinging to the walls.”
He lets out a slow breath, shaking his head slightly.
“The truth of everything she did, everything she took from me haunted me and the last thing I wanted was to keep living in a place that kept her alive. A place that honored her when she didn’t deserve it.”
I don’t say anything. I just listen.
