When Kate finds a crumpled drawing in her husband’s pocket, her world tilts. The message is simple — and devastating. As suspicion brews and gossip spreads, Kate must confront what trust really means… and whether love can survive the secrets meant to protect it.I didn’t expect anything when I pulled Tony’s shirt from the laundry basket.It was late, the girls were asleep, finally, after Amy insisted she couldn’t sleep without her green unicorn, and Lia needed help finding her gym shorts, and my work brain still wouldn’t shut off.The dishwasher hummed in the background. I was folding laundry in the living room because I don’t do well with loose ends, especially in my own house.
Tony’s shirt was wrinkled, the light blue one he wears all the time. I turned it right-side out and felt something stiff in the chest pocket.I assumed it was a receipt.Instead, I unfolded a piece of thick construction paper, crumpled at the corners. There were three stick figures drawn in marker. A little boy in the middle with a Spider-Man backpack at his feet, holding hands with a man and a woman.They were smiling beneath a sky of uneven blue swipes.I stared at it, confused — then horrified.Below the drawing, in crooked handwriting, were the words:”Thank you for helping Mommy smile again.”My heart dropped. The handwriting wasn’t Lia’s or Amy’s. And we clearly didn’t have a little boy.
