Chapter 98
RAE KELLER
I tried not to notice how tense and caregul the ice cream shop was as I cleaned the counter and got ready for the days work.
Against Arlan's wishes that I stayed home and gave time to recover from the other day's trauma, I insisted on being in the coffee shop, because I knew that if I stayed alone, I would have the time to think about the misfortunes that kept happening to me, my daughter now hated me, Ianthe took my daughter and succeeded in turning her against me.
I shook my head to clear off the thoughts as I folded the cleaning cloth on the shelves where we kept the leaning tools, I tried to act like I did not notice how granny Shey and Chelsea watched me carefully or how Kent kept finding stupid reasons to come out of his working place, all yo check up on me.
I acted like I did not see all that because I did not know what to say or what to feel about everything.
