What Once Was Lost
“Jonnson’s wagon rattled along the road on the way to the poor farm. Tommy was pressed so tightly against her side they moved as one in the wagon’s bed. She smiled down at him even though he couldn’t see it. It felt good—right—to have him nearby.She’d been drawn to Tommy from her first moments at the poor farm. Any fool could tell he was hurting. Hurting from being shucked away, same as she’d been. Maybe he’d been able to sense her deep pain—he possessed an odd way of seeing with his heart since... his eyes didn’t work anymore—because he’d seemed to attach himself to her. Seemed to like her more than the others at the poor farm. She chuckled, marveling. What a pair they were, him with his broken eyes and her with her broken spirit. And no hope for either of them to regain what they’d lost.The wagon hit a rut, jarring the wagon. Tommy released a little yelp and flailed his arms. Cora gripped him tighter and turned to glance at the seat, where Mr. Jonnson and Miss Willems sat side by side in silence.MoreLess
