The Way of Women
““Mommy?”
“Um. Keep going.” Mellie pulled open the door to Cascade Middle School.
A woman with auburn hair and a warm smile to match greeted her. “Hi, I’m Katheryn, and I’m just helping out here.”
Mellie introduced herself and Lissa. “I’m looking for my husband, Harv. He drives a logging truck and was supposed to come home yesterday afternoon.”
“I see. Then you are in the right place. You’ll have some forms to fill out, so if you take a chair, I’ll get them for you.” You both look too tired to s...tand.
