She Died To Change My Future

Summary

In the second year of my divorce battle with Rachel, the court stripped me of everything. I was cleaned out, left with nothing but the clothes on my back and a mountain of debt.

While I was packing my life into cardboard boxes, my daughter fished an old, dusty phone from the bottom of a trunk.

"Look, Daddy! It lights up!"

I tapped the screen. A single email notification popped up, casting a dim glow over the empty bedroom.

It was a message from ten years ago, written by my younger self.
