My Ex-Husband Took Our Daughter on ‘Father-Daughter’ Weekends, but What Fell from Her Backpack One Day Made Me Follow Them – Story of the Day
Zoey picked at her oatmeal, pale and silent. She’d once loved her weekends with Jason, but lately she’d been distant.
When I asked if something happened on their trips, she snapped and ran upstairs.
Jason showed up cheerful as ever. As he lifted Zoey’s backpack, something fell out — a positive pregnancy test.
He drove off before I could ask, so I followed him. Instead of the state park, he went to a house in the suburbs. Zoey looked terrified as he led her inside.
When I confronted him, a woman appeared. “It’s mine,” she said. “I’m pregnant.”
“Meet Sara,” Jason added, uneasy.
Zoey burst out, “You’re already a dad! Or do I not matter anymore?” Then she ran.
Outside, she sobbed. “Sara said they’re moving away. That I’ll only see Dad if I’m good. So I took her test — I thought it’d make them leave sooner.”
Jason appeared, shaken. “You’re my daughter,” he said, pulling her close. “No one will ever replace you.”
