Valerie had just finished the meeting with John’s teacher. As she walked with the kids, her mind wandered. The face of that man she’d seen earlier was identical to Peter’s. Shaking her head, she tried to dismiss the absurd idea. Holding Ethan’s hand, she strolled slowly beside John, who already looked exhausted.

“Ethan, sweetheart, can you help me?” Valerie asked, handing him her bag. “Take the car keys out of here, please!”

Ethan took the bag and did as she asked. Like the little gentleman he was, he didn’t give the bag back. He had already guessed Valerie’s plan: noticing how tired John was she intended to carry him while juggling her bag and crutches at the same time.

“No, ma’am! I can carry your bag and the crutches. You carry John. If I were stronger, I’d carry him on my back.”

Valerie couldn’t help but smile warmly at him. What a sweet boy he was.

“Thank you, Ethan! You’ve just given me a great idea!”

Ethan’s eyes lit up with excitement. Valerie led them to a bench and sat John on it before telling him to hop onto her back. Her son happily obeyed, and soon enough, the three of them were outside the school. After settling the two boys into the backseat of her SUV, Valerie began driving home, her mind still preoccupied with the face of that

man.

“Ethan, what’s your dad’s name?”

John had already fallen asleep, and Ethan was staring out the window, captivated by the scenery.

“My dad’s name is Alden, Alden Pietrovich. Why?”

“Just curious!”

Valerie didn’t know how to frame the question she really wanted to ask, but she needed to take advantage of John being asleep.
