Max said, “Anne’s over at the old house. She made plans with some friends.”
Darin looked at him, a little frustrated. “What’s the point of keeping all this up? You’d both be better off moving on. Staying apart could be the best thing for everyone.”
Max gave a small smile. “So you’re fine with watching your niece grow up without her mom around?”
Darin shook his head. “Getting divorced doesn’t mean Anne won’t have her mom.”
“But what if Felicia remarries? Has more kids? How much attention will Anne get then? You know better than anyone how hard it is on a kid when their parents split up. I’m not putting Anne through that.”
Darin couldn’t argue with that. He let out a sigh and finally said, “Maybe you are a good dad, you know. But why do you keep avoiding what happened in the past?”
Max looked away, his smile fading. “Some things just take time. That’s all.”
Darin stared at him for a moment, then said nothing more.
That afternoon, Felicia, Heather, Greg, and Luke spent hours wandering around the market. There were people everywhere—shoulder to shoulder, laughing, shouting, eating street food.
After dinner, everyone said their goodbyes and headed home.
Anne didn’t call to check in. She already knew where her mom was and what she was up to.
Heather walked through the door, dropped her bag, and went looking for Jeremy right away. “Hey, guess what I got today!”
Jeremy glanced up as she held out a slip of paper. He took it and unfolded it—an excellent fortune, the kind people brag about for months.
“What did you wish for?” he asked.
Heather grinned. “Take a guess.”
He gave her a teasing look. “You and Greg?”
She laughed. “No, not even close.”
“Then what?”
