Chapter 4: What Agatha Knew, But Didn’t Tell

🌿 Chapter 4 Is Here
What Agatha Knew, But Didn’t Tell

Sam didn’t expect to find a letter.

He didn’t expect Lynette to say what she did: quietly, gently, like setting down something fragile.

And he definitely didn’t expect the flowers to move.

In this chapter, something starts to shift. There’s a chipped enamel mug. A honey jar that takes too long to open. A moment at the window where Sam sees not just the garden, but his place in it.

And beneath it all, the truth Agatha carried. Not just about Sam’s mother, but about silence, depression, and the ache of belonging.

This is the chapter where the past begins to speak.

You’ll feel it in your chest.
