He looked down at me.

“What?”

“Nothing,” I said, smiling.

Then I changed my mind.

“Actually, I'm really happy.”

His expression softened.

“Good.”

And the beautiful thing was that I didn't need him to say anything more.

Because after twenty-seven years of trying to be enough for someone else, I had finally learned that my happiness didn't need anyone's permission.

Not Daniel's.

Not Michael's.

Not anyone's.

It belonged to me.

And this time, I intended to keep it.

THE END.
