Precise
“I don’t mind coming here nowadays for no particular reason. Although the weather should be heating up I haven’t felt much of a change, and the nights still darken early.
Weather aside, Ella’s park ritual never wavers. A couple of weeks ago we finished the last coloring book I had at home, so now we’re onto ponies and dolls. So much so that I have a favorite outfit for my favorite doll.
Walking to the park near Tim’s place, so close to the trees, shrubs and grass where Marco and I had be...en alone together made me anxious last week. I gripped Ella’s hand too tight, not realizing until she shook free. And suddenly I was out of breath—even when we walked at a sluggish pace.
Today, as we walk out of the house for a play at the park, I block thinking of Marco’s comments, my false belief of causing Paul’s death, and being responsible for my rape. I hum a song from one of Nickelback’s albums I’ve been listening to.MoreLess
