The confrontation at Dana's Café left a bitter taste in my stomach, most times all I wanted to do was leave, go further away from this town and all my troubles, but I couldn't anyway. Not now. I didn't want to be one of those moms who faded out of their kids lives anymore. Perhaps death was a reminder of that fact. Here today, gone tomorrow.
I got out of bed and took a quick shower the next day, and got ready for work. I'd managed to put some furniture in, a couch, TV, bed, just the basics. Sally sent a text about needing me for her pitch meeting, she'd wanted to speak to her agent about getting a book deal at her publishing company.
