Chapter 26 - Evelyn’s house
Two years later, the government no longer leased the residence to Evelyn under the old transition arrangement.
She moved to a condominium.
I heard through family.
Did not visit.
Dad asked once:
“Do you miss Ryan?”
I surprised myself.
“Yes.”
Not the man who watched his mother hit me.
The one who once left work early because I had the flu.
The man who danced badly in our kitchen.
The husband who drove through snow to bring me a forgotten presentation folder.

That is why leaving can hurt even when leaving is right.
