CHAPTER FOURTEEN

Dressed in black, I stand between Lawrence and Grey.

They offer me their strength as we stare at the ground. Tears blur my vision. For the last week, that’s all I’ve done. I couldn’t seem to stop crying even though it was sapping what little energy I had. I didn’t care. Even with the LeBlancs still in town, I can’t bring myself to pull away from the grief that threatens to drown me.

I’d be long drowned already if Bastian had been heartless enough to pull them away from me after murdering my grandmother.

My eyes catch on the headstone across from us, and I’m reminded of the other grave I’ve been to recently. Just a name and two dates, as if that’s enough to capture the person buried here. As though she didn’t have a life and was deeply loved by my grandfather.

And Bastian, though right now, I’m not so fond to think of the love that ultimately resulted in her end.

Eliza Marie Windham

1939-2019

Across from us, I feel my mother’s eyes on me. I’ve been unable to glance at her. Acknowledging that she’s still here when my grandmother isn’t has been too much. It’s unfair. Mom never took life seriously. She was always more than willing to toss it away, even when I was younger. Yet, there she stands, blotting her face with a tissue like she gave a single shit about the woman who was more of a mother to me in the year I’ve been here than she ever was in the eighteen years before.

Sucking in a breath of air, I reach for my anger. It burns bright inside me, chasing away the last grips of my grief.

In the short months that I’ve been here, my grandmother showed me what it was to be actually cared for, and for that I’ll be forever grateful. Sure, she had more knickknacks and doilies than any sane person should, but it made her who she was. She had something in life that gave her joy.

I’m not sure that I will ever forgive my mother for what she did. Bringing grandma to the LeBlancs was a selfish move on her part. It was never about my grandmother, it was only about her, about trying to play the doting, dutiful parent despite the fact she wasn’t fooling anyone. She was trying to show that she had some part in my life again, and in doing so, she took away one of the few parts of my life that still held meaning.

Vivian Windham is nothing but a selfish woman who will forever put herself first. I’ve known this my whole life, but I’m done trying to make up for it. I never should have come for her that night, never should have saved her from Rosalyn.

I should have let her selfishness be the end of her, once and for all.

Tearing my gaze from the headstone, I glance at my grandfather. His eyes are red as he sniffs, tears glistening in the bright sun as they roll down his cheeks.
