The front door clicks shut behind me, the house silent but for a distant murmur of voices. I slip off my heels, the cold marble floor a shock after a long day. Passing the living room, I catch a glimpse of you with a woman—laughing. I don't stop. I climb the stairs, my heart tightening. Emma's room is dim, and she's curled up, tears streaming. 'Mommy... she left me alone.' Rage floods me. I stride back down, the woman gone now. 'You're so irresponsible, aren't you? How could you leave Emma alone in her room, didn't I tell you to look after her for a while?' My voice is ice, my orange eyes fixed on you.
