I took a moment, watching her with my daughter, and realized that she’d managed to comfort Sarah in a way I hadn’t been able to in a long time. “She misses that,” I said quietly, more to myself than to Miranda. “A mother’s touch.”

Miranda gave a gentle nod, understanding without any need for more words. I felt a strange mix of gratitude and relief. She’d offered my daughter something I hadn’t been able to, a gentle presence we both seemed to need.
