When Dawn’s father passes away, her world crumbles—she loses her home, her sense of belonging, and the sister who was never truly there for her. Left with nothing but a few personal items and an old watch, she believes she’s hit rock bottom. But her father had anticipated everything. Hidden within his final gift lies a secret that will turn everything upside down… and redefine who truly comes out on top.
Before my dad passed, it was just the three of us in his house—him, me (17), and my older sister (35). But if I’m being honest, she was barely present. She treated the house more like a temporary stop than a real home.

Two weeks ago, he was gone. We had been incredibly close—unlike my sister, who always kept herself at a distance.
Then the will changed everything.
At the lawyer’s office, the truth hit hard: my dad had left the house entirely to my sister. As for me? All I received was his old watch.
The moment I held it, emotion surged through me. It was more than just a watch—it felt like a piece of him was still with me.
For a few days, we coexisted under the same roof. Then, without warning, my sister turned to me and said, “This is where we part ways. I need you to move out.”
I had just arrived home from work—only to find my belongings already packed and dumped by the front door.
