“I have found it is the only way I can sleep. I grab the bottle that has a little bit of whiskey left in the bottom and drink the last of it. I finally mustered up enough courage to come here to her grave. I trace the outlines of her name that are etched in the grey stone with my finger. Holly. I whisper her name over and over.

I close my e...yes, and the only acknowledgement I make to the shoe is mumbling, “Go away.”I cock one eye open to confirm it is Jett, whom I have not talked to in weeks. He kicks me again. “Get your drunken ass off the ground, and come with me.”“And why would I want to do that? I’m perfectly content here.”Jett scoffs at my words and kicks me again. “I said get up.”I grab his ankle and twist it enough to inflict pain. “And I said I was perfectly fine here.” He kicks me again. Damn it all to hell and back.MoreLessRead More Read Less
