Annie’s heart felt like it stopped for one moment. There in the midst of something she couldn’t relate to at all—the S&M—Maggie’s words reached out to her and Annie felt a deep sense of compassion and connection. She took a deep breath. There but for the grace of God.

For generations, women had lived their lives simply tending to their children and their husbands. Why wasn’t it enough for all women? Why did Annie get bored with her kids? Want something more?

The S&M made Annie uncomfortable. She’d always been pretty straight with her sex life. Still, it was within the realm of “normal” sexual behavior. She admitted that reading about S&M helped her to understand Maggie Rae’s personality. She was more certain than ever that Maggie Rae’s story held more richness and depth than she’d ever know. She was not just about sex or even erotica. She was a person who was responding to a pivotal event in her life. But what was it?

Annie meditated on a picture she found of the young Maggie Rae, her sister, Tina Sue, their mother, and their father; all were seated on a porch swing, with an apple tree behind them. Tina Sue was smiling at her sister. The mother looked stern, staring straight ahead at the camera. Maggie Rae was tucked under her father’s arm and smiled adoringly at him. He smiled back. Nothing was menacing about this faded Polaroid snapshot with a diagonal jagged edge. Still, she stared at it, wishing she could step into it, take the hand of young Maggie Rae, and listen to her secrets.
