The ache she felt for Lily was too strong to hold back. Mandy couldn’t help but say, “You spent your siz- year anniversary with Ms. Elsa. How could Ms. Lily possibly come back? She hasn’t been back lately at all.”

She honestly found the whole “six–year anniversary” idea laughable.

If today marked John and Elsa’s six years together, then what were the four years he spent with Lily?

Just bad luck on Lily’s part?

That thought was too heavy to say out loud, so she kept it to herself.

John heard the quiet reproach in Mandy’s tone and couldn’t help but frown.

He knew Mandy wasn’t lying–but he missed Lily so much, he still asked, “She really didn’t come back?”

“Sir, I’ll make you some pasta,” Mandy said, sighing as she turned toward the kitchen downstairs.

So Lily really didn’t come back…

John’s eyes filled with pain. Pressing a hand to his chest, he turned and went back into her room.

The photo frame wasn’t back on her nightstand.

Clearly, she’d taken that cherished photo of the two of them with her.

If she treasured that photo so much, how could she bear not to come back for his birthday?

He pulled out his phone to call her–he had to ask how long she planned to keep this up.

But before he could dial her number, something caught his eye.
