“Thank you so much for having Eddie over for dinner,” my grandmother said through the rolled-down window of the Ashtons’ giant Continental.

“You’re welcome. It’s nice to know that these two boys each have someone nearby for the summer.” The two women shared a look I recognized from watching my mother and Aunt Cathryn together.

“We’ll have to invite…” My grandmother’s voice trailed off as she looked at Taylor.

“Taylor…”

“…Taylor over for a visit soon.”

Mrs. Ashton drove away, and my grandmother stood, smiling, between me and the house.

“What a nice turn of events, don’t you think, Eddie?”

“I guess.” I walked past her and through the front door. She didn’t come in. In fact, she didn’t move at all. She just stood there looking at where I had been standing.

I had never hurt my grandmother like that before, but in that moment I didn’t really even notice. I was too busy thinking about how great Taylor’s life was and wishing I could be part of his family. I unknowingly made a decision that would impact Taylor and me greatly: I planned to erase the past by ignoring it.

And Grandma was part of the past.
