A Dress for a New Life
The long-awaited day had arrived, bringing joy for Ana but a flurry of emotions for Olive. The mother carefully chose a beautiful dress for the occasion, symbolizing the fresh start they were about to celebrate. To her, it was a dream come true—welcoming Olive as her daughter, officially and forever.
But the girl’s usual spark was missing. Her quiet demeanor worried the Quinns, who brushed it off as nerves about the court hearing. They offered gentle reassurances, but Olive’s silence hid something deeper. Her mind churned with questions she couldn’t voice. This wasn’t just a new chapter—it was a leap into the unknown.
