    Summary

    Lily’s voice is achingly kind. “The way you look at her is pretty familiar, Crystal.”

    I swallow, chew at my cheek a moment. “...that situation will take time to change. If it changes.”

    “Are you okay with it, if it doesn’t?”

    Sunlight dances atop the waves on the sound, and I lean back a bit, try to relax and appreciate the show. “I just want Lisa in my life. However she wants to be, it’s enough.”

    Summary

    “I think I get it now,” I whispered in Lisa’s ear, low enough only she could hear me even though I was fairly sure we were alone. “What you said about holding on to rage forever, letting anger hollow you out.” I glanced over to the retreating figure in the distance. “You were right, it’s no way to live. Hard to call it ‘living’ at all.”

    She grinned widely, letting her teeth show. “Sorry, Crystal, I didn’t catch what you said there. I was distracted for a second.”

    “I’m not repeating it.”

    She’s not sure when it happened, but sometime, somehow, Raven had become the one to sit in the middle seat.

    Summary

    The sunflowers, dried out in their vase, rustle at the wind of their passage. It would have been nice if things could have turned out differently. But this is far from second-best.
