    Summary

    Ben should say something. He should be able to say something, anything, to his Dad. It’s the goodbye he deserves. But Ben can’t help but think none of this is right. It will never be right again. His Dad will never hold him with unmarred hands again and it’s all Ben’s fault. Lily is never going to hug that unicorn stuffed animal she’s had since she was born and it’s all his fault. Mom is never going to hang those vintage photos she’s had in her family for generations over the mantle again and it’s all his fault.

    Neither of them are going to get the goodbye they want and it’s all Ben’s fault. Nothing is going to go back to the way it was and there’s nothing either of them can do about it.
