Edward jumped slightly, looking up at me from where his eyes were fixed in his lap. “Hey,” he replied. “I forgot you were coming.”
“Actually, I wasn’t,” I laughed, trying to lighten the mood. “I just needed to get out.”
He understood what I meant without asking me to explain. “Renee again?” he asked, sniffling.
I nodded. “I went into her old studio today.”
Edward chuckled quietly. “Bet she was super excited about that,” he muttered sarcastically.
“So why’d you do it?” he asked, rubbing a fist beneath his eye.
“I’m not sure,” I lied. “Well, I guess today was just bad because Charlie called. Everything in the house reminded me of what happened. I was sort of in the mood for masochism, remembering how Mom used to be.”
He reached down to take my bare hand in his gloved one, balancing them on his knee. “Things will get better, Bumblebee.”
