Chapter 14

I was a small child again. It was my old nightmare—one of several. My mother was hurrying me along a tree-lined path. It could have been our driveway in Bremerton. It could have been almost anywhere. I struggled to keep up. My legs were so tired, but at her urging I found the strength to follow.

Momma was carrying a baby in her arms. I heard the baby crying, but Momma quickly hushed it. “We have to hide. We have to keep them from knowing where we are.”

“Who, Momma?” I remember asking the question over and over. “Who’s gonna come? Who’s gonna find us?”

“It’s not important. What’s important is that we stop them,” she declared. “They want to take you away. They want the baby.”

I was never at all sure who was after us. In the years right before Momma died, it was her fears of a serial killer that drove her actions. But my child’s mind crisscrossed memories and thoughts with my adult dream state. The serial killer didn’t come up until years later when Piper was born. I was six by then—much older than my counterpart in the dream.
