Istood outside my father’s house on Christmas Eve, watching him through the frosted window as he laughed and raised a glass of bourbon in toast to my brother. My truck was parked at the end of the driveway with the headlights off and the engine silent. I had driven two hours through the snow on nothing but hope, the particular hope of a daughter who has been told she is not wanted and who drives anyway because some part of her still believes the words were a mistake, that her father will open the door and laugh at the misunderstanding and pull her inside where there is a plate set and a chair waiting and a place in the room that belongs to her.
