For so long, I had let myself drown in the sorrow of losing Theo. But now… now, I knew what I had to do.
With newfound determination, I looked at Alex, my gaze hardening with purpose. "I'm going to get better. For him. I won't let this depression take me any longer. Theo… he's going to need us both."
Alex's face softened, and though he looked just as broken as before, there was a glimmer of understanding in his eyes.
I reached out, placing a hand on his shoulder, feeling the tension under my fingertips. For all the pain and secrets, we were still here, together, bound by the love we shared for our son.
"I won't let anything else happen to him," I whispered, more to myself than to him. I wouldn't lose Theo again.
