“You’ve been back for a while, haven’t you? I’ve been meaning to invite you over for dinner but just couldn’t find the right moment. When you were ill, I visited you twice at the hospital. You were sleeping both times. By the time I went again, you had already been. discharged.”

Not even Autumn knew about it, or else she would have been devastated.

Perhaps it was the absence of a father figure that made Isaac so well-behaved from a young age. Whenever Estrella took him out or engaged in conversation, he’d wait silently by her side.
