Rebecca paused, surprised that Samuel had learned about the situation.
*So you know about the divorce, too?” she asked gently. She’d been trying to figure out how to tell him without hurting him too much.
Samuel nodded and said softly, “Yes”
Pulling him closer, Rebecca whispered into his hair, “I’m so sorry, baby.”
“Mommy, you’re such a dummy,” Samuel said, his innocent face full of concern as he squeezed her hand, “you shouldn’t have fought for custody of me.”
Rebecca fraze, her heart dropping to her stomach. Does Samuel not want to live with me?” she thought bitterly.
“Even if I live at Daddy’s, you’ll always be my favorite person,” Samuel told her, billing his head in that way that always saw right through her. “Til miss you every day and come see you on all my breaks.”
A smile appeared through Rebecca’s tears before she even realized she was crying.
“You should’ve let Daddy take me, Samuel said, his voice gentle but his words showing wisdom beyond his years. “Then he’d finally get how much work parenting really is.”
“I could never do that,” Rebecca whispered, feeling that Samuel and her mother’s love were life’s greatest blessings, “I couldn’t stand you growing up in that house. I want your childhood and your whole life to be full of love and happiness

She refused to let Samuel be corrupted by their values and wanted him to grow up with a healthy mind and strong character:
*Mommy, you’re such a goof,” Samuel said, holding her tight, his big eyes full of nothing but love. “But you’re the best.”
Rebecca smiled and ran a hand through his hair. Right then, she knew every hard choice had been worth it.
“Mommy,” he said in that cute little way of his that always melted her heart.
“Yeah?” Rebecca responded.
Hesitation showed on his young face. Did Daddy divorce you because of that secretary from today?”
Rebecca’s expression froze.
“I saw that hot search topic from the other day,” Samuel said in his gentle voice, sounding wiser than his years. “Daddy said he was traveling for work today, but his step count kept increasing for hours after ho left.”
Rebecca wanted to say something, but then hesitated. She was concerned he might not be ready to hear what she had to say.
