‘About three and a half years ago, I finally found the orphanage where you lived as a kid, only to discover that there was a fire the day after they took you in. None of the kids survived. Meaning, if they hadn’t taken you in, you probably would’ve died in that fire.”

“Even though they’re annoying as hell, they did save your life and raised you. They gave us the chance to reunite, so I figured I owed them something. But your mom died not long after you disappeared, she was depressed.”

It was the first time Astrid saw her dad looking so gloomy. She put down her wine glass, walked over, and hugged him, “Dad, I know you miss mom so much, but you need to take care of yourself…”
