Winter

I couldn’t find Edward anywhere.

I called and called.

He couldn’t have chased after Summer. He didn’t know yet she was gone. I was coming to tell him.

I opened the piano lid. Circled the moat. His blankets. Her food store.

As I checked her nook, so bare now, I saw it. My father’s knife on her bed. It was unsheathed, naked, shiny. Sharp. It had been cleaned.

I wanted to think that she couldn’t—would never. That she loved me too much.

But wasn’t that the problem?

I sprinted to the bell tower—ran every step. I was fast. From up high, I would be able to see further. I would be able to spot a body. Perhaps the forest. Perhaps the sea.

As I ran, I said to myself, ‘Peter Pan, Peter Pan, Peter Pan.’ Three times.
