Chapter 10: Aunt Clarissa

The locksmith came on Tuesday.

My arm was out of the sling by then, still stiff, still mine.

He changed every lock in the house while Jonathan's father stood on the porch and watched.

When he was done, he handed me four new keys on a plain steel ring.

I stood in the kitchen and held them for a long time.

The trash bags from the lawn were back in the bedroom closet.

My apron was on its hook by the back door.

Noah's drawings were still on the fridge, held up by magnets shaped like piano keys.

Everything was where it had been.

Except Noah.

Jonathan had him on weekends until we worked out something permanent.

His parents said it was only fair. I said nothing, because I didn't trust my voice.

On Wednesday I picked Noah up from school.
