Chapter 12 - The Boys Asked Garrett Whether He Wanted Them to Call Him Dad, and His Answer Made Me Love Him DifferentlyOne evening, Finn asked:
“Dad?”
Garrett looked up.
“Yes?”
“Do you like being Dad?”
Garrett froze.
“Yes.”
“Why?”
“Because I love you.”
Theo asked:
“Even though you missed everything?”
Garrett's eyes filled.
“Yes.”
“Why?”
“Because I love you now.”
The boys hugged him.
I turned away.
I couldn't stop crying.
Garrett looked at me.
“You okay?”
“Yes.”
“Sure?”
“Yes.”
He smiled.
“Good.”
Later, he sat beside me.
“I don't deserve this.”
“No.”
“But I'm grateful.”
“Yes.”
He laughed softly.
“You don't make forgiveness easy.”
“You don't deserve easy.”
“I know.”
May you like
Then he reached for my hand.
This time, I didn't pull away.
