Home, heartbreaking home.
The last thing I wanted was to come back to Louisiana,
but with my father reeling from a family tragedy,
someone has to make the arrangements and
deal with the aftermath.
I hold everything together,
even while drowning in my own grief—
both for my family and the perfect life I had at school.
When Hendrix shows up trying to convince me to take him back,
I push him away.
Dealing with him on top of my dad’s drinking is just too much.
I don’t even know what to think.
But Hendrix is persistent,
writing to me,
being there for me,
letting me know that I still matter and that he’s not going anywhere.
His determination sparks a glimmer of hope,
but my dad once again finds a way to ruin everything.
More secrets.
More lies.
How can anything ever be right again?
