She shook her head. “Everyone thinks he’s our dad. Even my friend’s parents believe that.”

“What do you mean? Isn’t he your dad?” I asked, my voice laced with urgency.

I was torn, unsure whether I should believe this little girl’s words. It seemed like she didn’t fully understand the truth. But at the same time, how could Selene hide something so important from her own children?

Letting out a deep sigh, I shook my head. “Didn’t Axel attend your parents‘ meeting?”

She gave me a small nod. “Yeah, but that was only because Mommy had an exam that day. Uncle Axel told her not to worry and went in her place.”

“She had an exam? She’s still studying?”

“Mommy just finished school. You didn’t know that?”

I had no idea. Selene had gone back to school? And she had even graduated? Memories surfaced- back then, she had given up her education to marry me. Her adoptive father had told me she had no interest in continuing school. I assumed she just wasn’t a good student and never thought much about it.

While I was lost in thought, Luna mumbled something that caught my attention. “Uncle Axel once told us to call him Dad, but Mommy stopped us. She said we shouldn’t call another man our dad. He just loves us a lot, that’s why he said it, but we shouldn’t take it seriously.”

Her words stunned me. I lowered my head, looking her in the eyes. “Then who is your dad?”

Tears welled up in her big eyes as she stared at me. “He’s not with us anymore. He’s gone.”

I froze. “What?”

“Mommy said our dad isn’t here anymore. She told us never to talk about him. So, Leo and I don’t.”

“He’s… gone?” I echoed, her words rattling in my mind.

I sat up straight, my thoughts spiraling. What she said hit me hard. If Axel were really their father, Selene wouldn’t have told them something like that. She wouldn’t erase their father from their lives if he were still around.
