Outside the trailer, Spence saw Claire look back.

“I don’t know how you stood it so long,” she said quietly. “Every night and day, watching people destroy themselves. I work with the results sometimes, but they’re usually attempting to get better by the time they come to me.”

He thought of all the things he’d seen and felt a grimace pull at his mouth. “There’s no law against screwing up your own life. It’s something you have to learn to deal with, or you can’t help anybody.”

He put his left hand on her shoulder to guide her back to their truck. But before they’d taken two steps, a sound leaked through a broken back window of the trailer. A sound that rooted them both to the spot.

It was a thin cry, tentative and fragile. The fretting of an infant in the first days of its life.
