She sighs. Waits for the car lights. The sound of an empty driveway. There’s dirt in her nails, cracking with glass. With eyes closed, her teeth peel her thumbs. Fucking nerves.
In front of her, she counts three again. Presses wet fingers to her throat. She still smells the smoke, the intimacy of a memory right at her skin.
Tight, she kneels. Fingers at dead weight’s cheek. Father, beech me - Ruby prayed once but snarls now, “I owe you for all those years.”
Out of the gate, she crawled knees first.
