Emily had long dreamed of becoming a mother, and her wish came true when she gave birth to triplet daughters: Sophie, Lily, and Grace. As she admired her peaceful babies, her husband Jack returned from an errand, looking pale and distant. When she invited him to sit with her, he hesitated and then shockingly declared that they couldn’t keep the babies, citing a fortune teller’s warning that they were cursed.
Stunned and angry, Emily confronted Jack about his belief in such nonsense. He revealed that his mother had convinced him of the curse, claiming it would bring bad luck and even lead to his death. Heartbroken, Emily told Jack that if he chose to leave, he wouldn’t get another chance to return. He walked out, leaving her alone with her newborns.
In the following days, Emily adjusted to life as a single mother, supported by friends and family. One afternoon, Jack’s sister Beth visited and revealed a shocking truth: there was no fortune teller; Jack’s mother had fabricated the story out of fear of losing him. Fueled by rage, Emily attempted to reach Jack, but he refused to believe her, choosing to remain distant.
Months passed, and Emily built a fulfilling life for herself and her daughters. One day, Jack’s mother came to apologize, but Emily held her accountable for the pain she caused. A year later, Jack returned, remorseful and asking for forgiveness. However, Emily, now strong and self-sufficient, told him that they had moved on without him. As she closed the door, she felt a sense of relief, knowing that she and her daughters had everything they needed in each other.
