Summary
The sun came in slow. Pale through the curtains, barely frosting the hardwood like it was afraid to wake anyone.
Elizabeth sat on the edge of the bed, elbows on her knees, staring at the floor like it might explain something to her. Her hands were clasped together and rested against her forehead, like she was white-knuckling herself through a prayer.

Summary
Lorraine is standing within the church sanctuary on a stage that was built just last week, between two other moms, conducting exaggerated, repetitive dance moves and mouthing to the music playing overhead, “Oh! The fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness–”
She’s heard this song so many times that it’s etched into her memory, playing it on a loop as she and Ed taught it to Judy when she was old enough to sing along.

Summary
Alex walked up beside Norma and grabbed the brown paper bag out of her hand, leaning over to give her a kiss on the side of her head as a thank you. It happened quickly, almost like a habit. Forgetting his lunch must have been a recurring thing. Or, he did it on purpose as an excuse to see his wife again during the day.
Susan longed for someone that would kiss her out of habit. One day, maybe.

Summary
After days of writing down what the doctors were telling her, staying up late at night reflecting over her scribbles and shorthand to suggest potential alternatives that would be shot down, she finally reserved herself to the fact that there was nothing she could do.
A demon she could face head-on, but the heart attack blindsided her. This was a different demon in and of itself. One that even she couldn’t cast out.
