Chapter 13 - Jason Runs Out of Lies

Jason finally spoke again.
"I was protecting her."
Nobody answered.
He tried again.
"Claire chose the Army."
Emma unexpectedly looked up.
"No."
Every eye turned toward the child.
"You told me Mommy didn't want me."
Claire's tears finally fell freely.
Jason closed his eyes.
He knew there was nothing left to deny.
Every recording.
Every drawing.
Every witness.
Every word.
