“Here, darling. Drink some chamomile tea and try to breathe deeply. It's going to be okay…” Thea murmured, handing a cup of warm tea into Alice's shaking hands, who could barely get anything in front of herself because of the tears blurring her vision.

“It's going to be okay, Alice…” sitting by her side, Lucy caressed her back and tried to wipe her face with a tissue “Oh, honey, I'm so sorry… But Millie will come back to you soon, I'm sure…"

“Fuck. Have you guys gotten any calls from Josh yet?” Massimo asked, for the hundredth time, to one of the many cowboys who were there in the living room, waiting with them for news of Joshua or Millicent.

“No, Mr. Bianchi.” one of them swallowed, worried.

    The last time she had set foot in the Dawsey mansion, Alice had promised herself that she and Millicent would never return to that place again. However, there she was, stepping back onto that lawn and staring at those doors, while all the employees cowered around, scared but not surprised, which meant her daughter was really in that house and there was only one person to blame for everything she had been through in the last 24 hours.She had spent a lifetime hanging her head and holding her breath whenever she walked across that floor, always feeling trapped and oppressed by the two women who were supposed to be her family. So many things she had endured, so many tears she had shed in secret and so many horrible things she decided to forget, just to try to leave it all behind and move on, in search of some peace...But clearly, Kendra didn't want to forget her.

    Alice had spent five whole years walking through hospital corridors and smelling that antiseptic smell in the air, taking care of her grandfather and then her clients. However, she had never felt so suffocated by that environment as she did at that moment, as she walked back and forth through the waiting room of the hospital's pediatric ward. With every step, she could feel Massimo's eyes following her, standing nearby, closer to the emergency room than the doctors had allowed.“Alice…” Lucy called, before appearing before her with a cup in her hands, stopping Alice from starting another lap “One of the nurses gave me this. It's some black tea, your favorite. It might help you calm down a little…”“I… I don't think I can take anything, Lucy…” Alice sniffled, that tightness in her chest stealing her

    “What…?” Massimo blinked, staring at her as if she were delirious “I’m mean… Of course I’m her father, Alice, but this is not the time to discuss this kind of thing. That won’t make me compatible with her…”"You do not understand." Alice swallowed hard, managing to keep her voice steady even as the tears ran down her face again “You're not just her stepfather! She... She's your daughter!”“But… What are you saying?” he muttered, in complete disbelief “This… This is impossible. We never…"“I promise I'll explain everything to you, but, please…” she held his hands, her sobs making her body shake “I beg you, do it now. Millie needs you… Your daughter needs you…”

    “What the fuck…” Massimo grunted, holding his head tightly, as if it was about to explode “Why… Why I don’t remember any of this, but, at the same time… You… You were wearing a white sweater… ” he murmured, in shock “I remember thinking the whole time how beautiful you looked wearing that, while we were alone in the kitchen. Then I dreamed I took it from you, but…” his gaze fell on his own hands “No. It wasn't a dream… When I woke up the next day… In that room… I could smell your perfume, but… I thought…” he gritted his teeth, staring at her with pure resentment “Why did you run away? Why did you let me wake up alone and think nothing had happened?!”“I didn’t know what to do anymore. It seemed like all I had left was to run away and pretend that I had j

    “Very well… Everything is in place now.” Dr. Weston murmured, turning a tiny tap that caused the red liquid in the bag above them to begin to flow “She's going to be okay, now. This will help her more than you can imagine.” the woman tried to give a gentle smile, but, of course, it was no use.In total silence, Massimo just stared at his blood running through the tube and onto Millicent's arm, completely ignoring the fact that he could feel Alice's gaze on him. He didn't know if she wanted to say something or wanted him to start a conversation, but the last thing Massimo would do at that moment was address her again. Fuck, had he ever believed that she was the only person who would never disappoint him? What a fucking illusion.Anger wasn't enough to define what he was feeling a

    Alice felt as if every part of her had been ripped out and then sewn back together in the wrong places.Her eyes were still swollen after so many tears have rolled and, even now, after so many hours had passed since the worst moment of her life, Alice still felt embarrassed and dejected after she had confessed her biggest secret to Massimo. God, she knew it would be terrible when he found out that Millicent was his biological daughter, but… Somehow, her heart had still been able to break again, and again, and again.“Are you sure you don’t want dinner?” Lucy asked, at the same time a cup of tea appeared in front of where Alice was sitting."No. I'm not hungry." Alice struggled to smile, even though her eyes were still fixed in the di

    “And this is Bethsy. My friend Cassie gave she to me for my birthday. I liked leaving her hair down, but a idiot boy called Dominic got gum in it and Mom had to cut it short.” Millie explained, intently focused as she arranged her dolls on the hospital bed, not even seeming to realize that Dr. Weston was listening to her heart.“Really? Oh, boys can be so silly sometimes…” the pediatrician laughed “You know, I also have several dolls at home. They were from my mother’s collection.”“Can you bring it for us to play with? Mom said that my Grandpa Lucas was sleeping for a while like me, but now he's fine. She said I can visit him later and play…” Millie continued counting, so excited that Alice managed to undo the bandage on her hand with ease, before removing the long needle that until then had b

    “That…” Alice swallowed hard, the shock of those words not allowing her to do more than reach out her hand and take the exam envelopes he had held out to her “You… You really…?”"This is a lie! That’s what it is!” Kendra intervened, but Micah remained standing protectively in front of Alice, preventing her from getting closer “I have tests here that say that Amber is his real daughter! You should be ashamed of yourself, Micah! Denying your own daughter just to try to get closer to Massimo’s wife, pretending to be her father! Believe me, I would love to give you a daughter as hateful and ungrateful as Alice!” she growled, but for the first time in 23 years, Alice didn't care if Kendra hated her or not "But unfortunately for all of us, she's my and Roger's daughter...!"“Keep your li

    “Look! Here comes our lovely bride!”At the sound of her aunt's cheerful and even slightly emotional voice, Millicent forced a smile, trying to look as light and happy as possible as she walked towards them, as any bride should be. Around her, the engagement party continued exactly as she had left it, flawless with drinks being served to smiling guests and the decor without a single flower petal out of place. Everything was perfect and she could see that everyone there, especially her family, also thought the same.And knowing that almost made her regret what they were about to witness.“You look so beautiful, Millie…” her Aunt Heidi was the first to come over, wrapping her in a warm hug “God, I can hardly believe that soon we will actually see you in a wedding dress and walking into a church...”“You look like you were a little girl just a few hours ago…” Thea, who had been her nanny throughout her childhood, took another tissue from the almost empty box on her lap “And now you are go

    “You look so beautiful, Debbie... Isn't it amazing how that dress makes your hair color pop?” Evangeline hummed, and, even though she struggled, Deborah had her chin held and was forced to look at her own reflection in the mirror before them. “You… You really think so?” she swallowed nervously. “Of course! This will be perfect to shut up all those mean girls who are always talking about how this beautiful red is a mark of the God of Discord. Oh, I would give anything to have hair like that too...” Evangeline sighed, running her fingers through her perfectly straight, snow-white hair. "Do not say that. Your hair is perfect. How could it not be? It is a symbol of the Moon Goddess.” Deborah turned to face her cousin, intertwining their hands “And, don’t worry. I know that before I was always wetting your shoulder with my tears because of this, but... Iron is always saying that my hair is beautiful, so... I have no reason to cry anymore. Whenever he tells me I'm completely perfect...

    “Okay, honey. Now… Open your eyes.” Alice asked and, when Millicent opened her eyes and looked at her reflection in the mirror, the smile that appeared on her face made her mother's heart more than happy. “That’s amazing, Mom!” Millie smiled to herself, moving closer to the reflection to observe in more detail the way Alice had painted her eyelids “I’m… I’m pretty, right?” she asked with a shy smile, as her hands nervously twisted the hem of the dark green dress, the same color as her eyes, that she was wearing. “You are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen, honey.” Alice sniffled, holding her daughter's face, unable to stop the tears from flowing. “Mom, please… Don’t cry again.” her daughter asked, hugging her. "Sorry. It’s just… One day you were my little girl, running around the house wanting to play with your dolls and now… You’re a 16 year old girl, almost as tall as me and getting ready for your first date.” she had to stop once again to stop herself from bursting int

    “And this is the role of fibroblasts in the healing process.” Alice spoke on the phone, as she took her pie out of the oven, happy to see that the dough had turned golden and crispy, exactly how her husband liked it “You can read more about this in the Cell Biology book. Any other questions, Lindsey?”“No, Alice.” the freshman sighed on the other end of the line, clearly relieved “You saved my life. And thank you for letting me record our conversation, it will help me a lot to review all of this for the next test. I just hope it’s not as killer as the last one.” she lamented “Mrs. Doherty was right. You are the best monitor we could ask for.” “It’s just my job.” Alice laughed, opening the cabinet doors where the dishes were “Now, if you don't have any more questions, I'll hang up now, okay? And, if any of your friends comment they tried to contact me this weekend and couldn't, can you let them know that I'm busy? And also remind them that my work as a monitor can only take place dur

    “I… I’m sorry if your father isn’t a good father.” Millicent said, feeling like it wasn't right to leave him alone there, even though he clearly wanted that "My mother also had very bad parents and they hurt her a lot, until she found out they had lied and were not her real parents…”“I don’t think I’ll be that lucky.” he grumbled, not looking at her.“Well, that's bad, but that's not what I was going to suggest. When I was very little, mommy… I mean, my Mom told me that bad parents make their children wonder what they did wrong to be treated badly. But the real question should be: how can a father or mother be so mean to their own child? Never let the bad words of your family get to you. Just because a person is your family, doesn't mean he or she is right about yoy.” Millicent recited, although the memories of her mother's words were a little blurry, coming from the time when they still lived in that small room in the Dawsey mansion and she didn't even know her father existed.“That

    “Okay, class. We are already accommodating your parents in the main auditorium.” Mrs. Keeley, one of the 3rd grade teachers, clapped her hands as she entered the classroom full of children, quickly grabbing the basket full of cookies that was on the table "Everything is ready, so Miss Shepherd will be calling you any moment, okay? Don't forget the chorus of the song and much less the part reserved just for your father. I’m counting on you!” she said, her voice so fast it was almost difficult to understand, as she left the room once again, practically running towards the auditorium where the Father's Day performance would take place. “You shouldn’t have left putting those bows on the brownies at the last possible moment, Poppy!” Cassie grumbled, but still didn't stop applying the glue stick to the glittery paper bows. “It’s not my fault!” Poppy whimpered, desperately trying to glue the bows onto the cellophane of the brownies she was giving her father as a gift “Mom told me she would

    “And, as a last question, Mrs. Bianchi, how do you feel, as the creator, seeing your social project come so far and reach so many people positively?” the reporter asked, turning the microphone towards her as the cameras were turned towards them. “It’s a wonderful feeling. Every day, we receive several families who are unable to even obtain a loan to pay their medical expenses and, here, we are able to serve them in the best possible way, often restoring the quality of life that they had lost a long time ago. It's teamwork from a fantastic team of not only nurses, but also doctors and other healthcare professionals, who I was very lucky to be able to bring together here to support this initiative. My expectations for the future are that we can further expand our capabilities and be able to serve oncology and kidney patients soon.” “That’s great to hear.” the reporter said, his excessively white teeth gleaming against the sun as he smiled at the camera. “And that was our interview with

    “Elise?” His voice cracked, sounding almost as if all the air had been stolen from his lungs."Are you okay?" she murmured, moving even closer to him to caress his face, her hands feeling as soft as he remembered “Did you have a nightmare? You were talking in your sleep, but I couldn’t understand…”“Elise?! Is it really you?” Micah sat up with a start, but only managed to feel even more confused when he realized he was lying on a bed, in Elise's youthful room, with the same lilac wallpaper and one of the walls covered in sheet music, next to her grand piano. A few meters away from the bed was the balcony, with the glass doors ajar, where he used to sneak into her room after climbing the large empress tree that was right next to it.“Of course it's me…” her eyebrows furrowed more and more “Are you sure you're okay, Micah? I know you spent the whole day helping your father prune the trees in the garden. If you want to go home and get some rest, I don't mind. We can do it another night…”
