Summary
Between bites of dinner at the scarred kitchen table that was once both of theirs, Vi had told Caitlyn there was no sign anywhere of her lost sister anymore, not even the vague tales of explosions and burnt-out buildings that had once kept Vi’s search alive.
While Caitlyn would never allow herself to hope for someone else’s death – and certainly not Vi’s sister, who has become Caitlyn's family too – she does dare to wish that maybe Vi would stay a while longer. Just this once.
---
OR once a year for the last four years, Vi has come home from her search for her sister to a waiting Caitlyn. The absence and the distance has taken its toll, but some memories will always remain...as will some longings.
