Her vision blurred with tears as she continued to read, the depth of Eric’s love pouring out with each word. He spoke of his hopes and dreams for their family, of the future he had imagined for them and their unborn child.

He shared stories from their past, little memories that he cherished, weaving them into a tapestry of their shared life.

But it was the last part of the letter that left Emily speechless, bringing her to her knees. Eric had included a note about a savings account he had secretly opened in her name, a nest egg for their child’s future. He had been saving meticulously, planning for the day they would start a family.

Attached to the letter was a bank card, a key to their child’s future, and a promise from a father who would never have the chance to hold them.
