Ripples Through Time
“ “Was she your favorite?” Edward asks.
“What do you mean?” I ask. I finish the sandwich and dust the crumbs off my shirt. Mellie always teased me about how many crumbs I would get on me after eating.
The sandwich tasted fine, but to be honest I barely enjoyed it at all. I can’t help but think of it as a last meal. Will it be the last thing I ever eat?
“Your favorite child,” he clarifies unnecessarily.
I play with the idea. “I don’t think I had favorites.”
“That’s what everyone says,” Edward sa...ys with a shrug, “but it’s difficult to be completely neutral.”
“True,” I agree. “But I don’t think it was a favoritism thing. I loved them each differently. I think it was just harder to get along with Jason and Richard because they were too much like me.”
“They got your traits?”
I laugh. “Only the bad ones. Especially Jason. He was like looking into a mirror sometimes, and I knew he’d have a tough way of things. He was determined to learn everything the hard way.”MoreLess
