Re: Locked: Sid W / Iris M
You knew what Lucien did to our family, Iris. How's this news? Did he tell you about Rome? That has him fucked up.
[And after a pause, the pen keeps going.] Anne was home from the hospital maybe a three weeks after my baby daughter was born. Zoe's her name. Anne was home, and I work all hours, and she had these circles under her eyes. I wanted to let her sleep, ya know? The baby didn't let her do it much, and I was home that morning. I hated that damn carseat we had. The first one? Such a pain in the damn ass. But I got Zoe in, and I drove clear across town to Anne's favorite bagel place, to get her coffee and breakfast. Figured she could use the break. Stupidest damn thing I ever did. She was dead by the time I came home. Zoe's six months old these days.
But wanna know something? You could have cut your eyes out for this damn man, and Anne would still be dead. Rome too. It's not actually on you.
