The China Doll
“She threw it all into suitcases, and when she ran out of room, she used garbage bags. She threw the bags downstairs and triple locked the doors. Zainab heard a car drive up two hours later. She looked outside and saw Mitch and Martin outside. Mitch looked up. Zainab waved, but Mitch was too heartbroken to do the same.
Emily made Zainab talk about Richard, because talking about Mitch was too hard right now. Zainab didn’t have anything to say. It was over and she wasn’t angry. She still loved Ric...hard and maybe she always would, but they were done.
Zainab arrived at Richard’s house at nine-thirty the next morning. The security guard smiled when he saw her. She barely managed a smile back. She hoped someone was going to explain what happened to him.
No one was downstairs. It was better that way. She went into Richard’s room and got out all of her bags. She was packed in twenty minutes. It was good that she’d done this before—it made everything that much quicker.
"Zainab." She turned around.MoreLess
