Now that the guys were a bit more accepting of David and less worried that he was going to attempt to kill me or create some sort of havoc, they eased up a little on their overprotectiveness.

They were still super watchful, but less suspicious and overbearing. I was able to get out of bed and go out to read by the fireplace in the morning without needing all three of them to escort me everywhere inside the house. It was a nice sense of balance and family that we had created.

When I crawled over their still-sleeping bodies in the morning, I went out to make coffee and then to see if David was awake yet. He had been working on a surprise in the garden the day before and I was anxious to see what it was. He wasn’t in his bedroom when I went to go check, which meant that he was probably already in the garden waiting for me to come out so that he could show me what he’d been working on.

The garden had become almost as special to us as our time building puzzles. We had long chats among the plants and flowers and there was something about getting your hands dirty in the soil that appealed to both of us. It was a sort of “grounding with nature” thing which I think made us both feel tethered a bit.

I went back to the kitchen to finish making the coffee before I headed out to the garden. When it was done, I poured us both a cup and went outside to see what surprise awaited.

The surprise that met me there sent both of the coffee cups crashing to the ground and my blood-curdling scream hurling through the mountainside.

Within an instant, all three men were at my side looking at the same sight that I had hoped to never again see in my lifetime.

There, lying face-down in the soft, dark dirt of the garden, was David with a suicide note tucked perfectly between the fingers of his right hand.

No, no, no….

I couldn’t do this again, not again.

Michael bent down and put his fingers to David’s neck. He didn’t need to say anything, though. I already knew that David was dead. He pulled the piece of paper out from David’s hand and read it.

Sorry.

The single word was all that was written on the paper. It was happening again...

“He didn’t kill himself,” I said as I started to cry.

Adam wrapped an arm around me and held me as I watched Rob help Michael gently turn David’s body over on the ground. The knife that David had held in his hand, the one that he had set down in the garden when I first decided to offer him a chance, was protruding out of his chest and the dirt was stained by his spilled blood.

Then, Michael looked up at Adam and then spoke the words I already knew to be true. “Lisette is right, he didn’t kill himself.”

“How do you know?” Adam asked.
