“Not everything is bright and beautiful,” Miles’s mom said. “The real world is full of pain and disappointments. I wanted to protect you from that. I didn’t want a son who grew up hating his father. Or mother.”

She reached for Miles’s hand and said, “Some days I wished I could tell you everything, let you in on what I was planning. I spent weeks thinking about bringing you along. But I couldn’t do that to you. Not when you had your entire life in front of you.” She sat down as well. “As I said, you’re grown now. So, I’ll level with you. If you want, I can tell you everything.”
