“This is beautiful,” Jack whispered, looking around at the small garden.

“If you ignore the dead body.” Owen sniped, kneeling in a pool of blood beside said body.

“But it’s really something when all you see from day to day is the bad, and then you see what Mother Nature herself gives-”

“-and a gardener.”

Jack ignored him. “The colours, the birds, the flowers, the bees, the stink of life…beautiful.”

“You sound like you’ve never seen a backyard before.” Jack looked at Owen silently, challenging him to continue. Owen paused. “I’d say that this was a weevil attack.” He paused again, looking at Jack. “Maybe they didn’t like the garden.”
