Time Stood Still
“It really was amazing the things he would do for her just because he loved her.
Lauren shared everything she could about her life with Mishca, making sure not to mention where they had stopped before arriving. By the time she finished, and Susan had told her of everything—though not nearly as much as Lauren—she and Ross had been up to for the past few months, it was already midday.
With not much else to do, Lauren talked Mishca into going into town with her, letting him drive since she knew he ...preferred it. As they ventured into the town center, she remembered why she loathed it there.
That was the thing about small towns, you either left and never came back—or only to come back and visit if you still cared about your family—or you stayed stuck there until you died, reflecting on the “good ol’ days.” Of course, Lauren’s opinion might have varied if there had been something else to occupy everyone’s time besides her father’s murder, but there wasn’t much luck there.MoreLess
