Chapter 125

• Mr. Michelson approached his wife, who stood by the doorway, lost in thought, gazing outside with a mixture of sadness and nostalgia. He gently placed his hand on her shoulder, bringing her back to reality.
• "What are you thinking about?" he asked, his voice soft and concerned.
• "Just Chase," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "And Liam." She paused, collecting her thoughts. "They're now orphans." Her voice trembled, and her eyes welled up with tears. "It's just... things change so fast. He was alive and well just a short time ago, and now he's gone. Overnight. It just happened without warning."
