WHEN I STOPPED BEING USEFUL: A MOTHER’S JOURNEY BACK TO HER OWN LIFE

Rebecca looked at me carefully.

“But legally you could.”

“Peter says the agreement allows ninety days.”

Daniel gave a humorless laugh.

“That doesn’t make it much easier.”

“No.”

He rubbed his forehead.

“Why didn’t you tell us before you moved?”

“Because I didn’t remember.”

“And if you had?”

I considered it.

“I still would have moved.”

His face tightened.

“But you might have warned us.”

“Yes.”

That was true.

He looked surprised by my answer.

I had no interest in pretending I had behaved perfectly simply because I had been hurt first.

“I should have told you I was leaving before I hired movers,” I said. “I made that decision while I was angry.”

“You didn’t seem angry on the phone.”

“I was.”

Rebecca looked at the folder.
