Kelvin lifted a hand and gently ruffled her hair. “I believe you.”

As soon as those three words left his mouth, Jan spoke up as well, shaking his head in disbelief. He remarked, “She’s really only three?”

So, Marian had to find a way to win them back. The best way? Play the victim.

As soon as she stepped through the door, Marian started crying. “Mom, Dad, I’m sorry.”
