Rectify (Return to Us Trilogy #2)
“My mind races as I stroll into the waiting room at work Wednesday. Why did he have to leave at four in the morning?
Aunt Helen glances up at me through the check-in window and smiles. "Hi, sweetie." "Hey." I refuse to talk to her because she only hurts me when she speaks.
"Are you okay?" "Yeah." I walk down the hallway and stop at the threshold to my office. Forget it. No more avoiding the issue. I stride back to the waiting room. She doesn't look up from her work.

"Ivy, wait." "What?" "We discuss these matters in proper settings." What the hell is she talking about?MoreLess
