They Regretted It After I Gave Up Chapter 23

Mom and Dad didn’t even know what day she left.

She never told them.

She dragged her suitcase by herself and called an Uber to the airport.

At the security gate, she looked back at the city.

She had spent two years here.

Here, she had met Beckett.

Learned where she came from.

Met her biological parents.

And lost her biological sister.

In the end, she turned and walked through the security checkpoint.

She didn’t look back again.

After the plane took off, the world outside her window was nothing but clouds.

She stared out at them, tears slowly tracing paths down her cheeks.

She thought of her adoptive parents.

They had always been so good to her.

But she had still spent so much of her life wondering where she came from, why she was given away, and if her birth parents had ever loved her.

Later, she learned the answer.

It wasn’t that they hadn’t wanted her. They had just been too poor to keep both children.

But was that love?

If they loved her, why had they never once tried to find her?

If they loved her, why did they go to church to pray for her sister but never once called her?
