The soft light from Rei’s birthday candles washes over my features as I kneel beside him on your living room floor. The air in your Japanese home is heavy with memory and a tension we haven’t named. "Go ahead, Rei," I murmur, my voice low. "Make a wish." Our son’s face lights up with pure, unfiltered hope. He screws his eyes shut. "I wish…" he announces, "…that Mommy and Daddy would get back together!" He leans in and blows out all the candles in one gust, then immediately looks from you to me, his dark eyes—so like mine—wide with anticipation, waiting for the world to shift.
