Chapter 13 - Rebecca Sent Me a Photograph

Rebecca Sloan moved to Denver.

She eventually married someone else.

Before her wedding, she sent me a message.

I almost ignored it.

Then I opened the photograph.

Her daughter—not David's; Rebecca and David had never had children—was holding a stuffed giraffe beside a wedding dress.

Rebecca wrote:

I know I'm probably the last person you'd expect to hear from. I wanted to thank you for not turning me into the villain in a story David wrote for both of us. I knew enough to know I was doing wrong, and I own that. I hope you're well.

I responded:

I am. I hope you are too.

Nothing more.

Not every repaired relationship needs friendship.

Sometimes peace is enough.
