« Mom, we didn’t go to Dad’s wedding. But I’ve been preparing something for him all week. It’s already packed. I want an Uber driver to deliver the box. »
I looked at it, completely perplexed.
I had no idea why Elliot had decided to prepare a gift for his father and Claire.
But I also knew one thing: despite everything that had happened between Daniel and me, my sons might want to have a relationship with their father one day.
I didn’t want to be the one who prevented them from making that choice.
So I agreed to arrange for the delivery of the package.
The mysterious gift prepared by Elliot
Elliot asked the driver to deliver the box directly to the restaurant where the wedding reception was taking place.
Even before the package arrived, he called Daniel.
He apologized for our absence at the wedding and explained that he had sent a special gift.
At that point, I still had absolutely no idea what was in that box.
Elliot hadn’t explained anything to me.
So we resumed our film as if nothing had happened.
Then, about an hour later, my phone rang.
It was Daniel.
