Chapter 52

• Ethan’s POV
• I stood in front of Mami’s house, my heart pounding in my chest like a drumbeat. My hand hovered over the doorbell, but I couldn’t bring myself to press it just yet. I had thought about this moment a thousand times, rehearsed what I would say, but now that I was standing here, all the words felt so… inadequate.
• I wasn’t sure how she would react. I wasn’t sure what I was even expecting. But I had to see her. Sophie. My wife; it had been over a week since she left the house and she had refused to return or make contact at least.
