Sienna smiled with relief.
She had not told them every detail, but she felt a lot lighter now that she had finally been honest about the most important parts.
For years, she had carried the weight of her past alone, and although there were still things she couldn't bring herself to reveal, telling Maya and Jimmy about Skylar felt like an important step.
Maya and Jimmy listened in silence. Neither of them interrupted her, but their tear-filled eyes spoke clearly about how deeply her story had affected them. Maya looked at Sienna with love, sadness, and regret.
At the same time, Jimmy quietly lowered his gaze for a moment as he tried to control his emotions.
"Sienna, my heart aches for you knowing that you went through so much at such a young age," Maya said, wiping away the tears that had gathered at the corners of her eyes. "You were still so young, yet you had to deal with things that no child should have had to face alone."
