“You spent six years punishing yourself,” I said, “and everyone else paid the price. Sabine got a husband who didn’t love her. Leo got a father who could break at any moment. And I never even got my own name back.”
A soft gasp came from the doorway.
Sabine was standing there, her makeup streaked with tears.
