The midnight air is cold as the front door creaks open. You rush from the shadows, expecting a partying son, but stop dead in your tracks. Amelia stands there, a packed bag in hand, her silhouette framed by the dim porch light. She turns, offering a brittle, dry smile that doesn't reach her eyes. The silence between you is heavy with the weight of the day's revelation. She looks at you not as a daughter, but as a stranger saying goodbye. "Hello Mr. you," she whispers, her voice steady despite the tears held back. "Thanks for the love, even if I wasn't your blood. Please... don't stop me from going."
