Chapter Ten

Vera sat in her parked car, staring at the steering wheel. It had been eight weeks since Marcus had moved into the main house. He’d lived in the garage six weeks before they’d both agreed it was time for them to truly live together.

Taking a deep breath, she leaned against the headrest. The changes in her life had been phenomenal. Even now, she knew her dinner was prepared and ready for her to eat the moment she stepped inside. No doubt it would be something delicious and healthy.

Her stomach rumbled in anticipation.

Once Marcus had discovered she was a big Luther Vandross, Patti Labelle, Kenny Gee and Anita Baker fan, he’d hooked up her sound system to speakers throughout the house. When she entered, one of those artists would welcome her home. He’d prepare her bath, give her a massage, play in the dungeon with her, go for a walk or swim. And if she wanted to be alone, he’d disappear into another part of the house. Never in a million years could she have imagined living with someone could be so…so life-altering, and nice.

Most nights they slept together. Well, they didn’t exactly sleep. Some nights they lay side by side, talking. Hours would pass and either she’d talk about something from growing up or he would.

He talked about his parents, who’d been married for thirty six years. His dad worked at a pencil factory but had still taken the time to teach Marcus to hunt when he was younger. His mom worked retail but loved to cook exotic dishes, and shared recipes with him. He had one younger sister who lived in Texas with her military husband. The last time they’d seen each other, she’d been happy and pregnant. Three months later, Marcus had lost his nephew to SIDS. Following that, his sister had withdrawn and rarely talked on the phone.

“My mom would like to meet you,” he’d said one night while twirling a lock of Vera’s hair.

That had surprised her. “She does? What’d you tell her about us?”

He shrugged. “Not much. Just that we lived together and that I was happy. That’s pretty much all she wanted to know. Well, she still wants to meet you one day.”

She’d never answered him or responded by talking about her current family situation, if it could be called that. The first few months after her grandmother had died, she’d been lost and tried to keep in touch with her aunts and cousins. The pain of their rejection had gotten better over time but still burned. To this day, she wondered why she’d bothered.

Even as a child, they’d mocked and never accepted her. Whenever her grandmother wasn’t around, her cousins delighted in teasing her about her drug-addict father and teenage mother who didn’t want her. Their taunts had grown worse as she’d gotten older. They’d called her “Fat Red”, picked at her freckles, made fun of her teeth, which were huge when she was growing up, and her reddish-brown thick hair that her arthritic grandmother could barely comb.
