Mary's POV
It had just been me and my stepdad since I was 12 and my mother left us. My mother met Riker when she was 30 and he was 18. I was 10 at the time. They fell in love and got married. I had nothing against Riker. He was cool with me. He gave me advice when I needed it. And he was there for me when my mom wasn't. The three of us were happy..... for another two years.
He woke up to find a note on my mom's side of the bed.
"Daddy," I remember saying while peeking my head in through the door, "what're you reading?"
I heard him quietly sniffle before answering me.
"Nothing baby," he assured me. I saw him ball up the paper and clench it in his fist. "Go downstairs, I'll be down in a minute."
His voice slightly cracked as he stood up and walked to the bathroom, wearing nothing but his boxers. I saw him toss the note on the ground.
When he closed the door, I scuttled into his room to read the mysterious note.
Riker,
it pains me to have to tell you like this, but I can't bear to do it in person. I've fallen in love. It wasn't my intention to. We were co-workers, both working late nights. We just clicked. I'm sorry. I can't face you after this. Tell my little Mary I love her with all my heart. I wish you the best.

I couldn't believe my eyes. My mother had left Riker for another man. And just left us. I heard Riker coming out of the bathroom and ran for my room. I didn't dare to tell my dad I read the note. I'd just have to act like I never noticed my mother was gone until he told me himself.
