Summary: “Your mum and I, we weren’t perfect parents,” he added. “We fucked up, a hell of a lot. I’ve never denied that we could have, should have, done better by you kids. I never laid in bed with a needle in my arm while my children were raised by nannies.” He licked his lips. “And your mum, well, she’s the best mum that you and your siblings could have asked for, isn’t she?”

When Dad looked at Mum, it was if he didn’t see her as the person who had gone through a year and a half of intensive treatments, but rather as the person whose eye he’d caught in a London nightclub almost thirty years ago. But he’d always looked at her like that, even when she’d been in the hospital for weeks on end, ashamed to let anyone see her. Heather was sure that if her mum had been able to hide that she was undergoing treatments, she would have.
