Flight

.

I walk up the driveway and see suitcases in the car. Renee is struggling to put Bella in her seat, but she's struggling against the straps.

"Renee?"

She doesn't answer me.

I step closer.

"Renee!" Louder this time.

"What the hell's going on?"

I recognize this sinking feeling. I try to shake it off, but I remember the last time I thought she was leaving me. This time, she's really going, and she's taking my baby girl with her.

I reach out and grab her arm.

"Please don't," I beg.

"Just let me go, Charlie."

I watch them drive away.
