Chapter 20: Selma's Last Card
My mother came in without being asked, as she had in every house I had ever lived in.
She sat at Myra's kitchen table in her camel coat and laid the leather folder in front of her.
Myra stood at the stove in her robe, holding the spatula.
"Coffee, Selma?"
"No, thank you. I won't be long."
She did not look at Myra's robe or the room or the pan on the burner.
She looked at me.
"Where is Milly?"
"At a sleepover across the street. It's seven."
"Good. I would rather she not hear this."
She opened the folder and turned it to face me.
The top page was on Stanbridge Motors letterhead, the bottom of the page crowded with initials.
"I am prepared to restore you as general manager," my mother said.
"Today. Effective immediately."
I did not touch the page.
"Colby will report to you, as he should have all along. I will sign over the deed to your house."
