People called our actions brutal. We gathered evidence, protected ourselves, confronted the truth, and walked away.
But the real cruelty happened before we knew anything.
It happened when Mark kissed me goodnight after leaving a hotel with Jenna. It happened when Jenna stood beside Daniel at their wedding while hiding a betrayal that would destroy him.
All we did afterward was stop carrying the cost of their choices.
And for the first time in 31 years, I believe my father would have approved.
