PART 2
I smiled.
I didn’t argue. I didn’t raise my voice. I didn’t make a scene in front of the children.
I simply took the three economy class tickets, put them in my bag, and looked at Roger.
“You’re right,” I said calmly. “Enjoy the flight with your mom.”
He smiled smugly, convinced that he had won.
His mother even gave me a satisfied look before walking towards the priority boarding line.
But there was one small detail that Roger had forgotten…
I was the one who had booked absolutely the entire trip .
While they waited to board, I took out my phone and dialed a number.
—Good morning, this is Laura. I need to make a small change to my reservation at the Bahía Azul Hotel .
The receptionist recognized my name immediately.
—Of course, ma’am. How can we help you?
I took a deep breath.
