“I know, but I won’t have to see him everywhere I look. There isn’t a single place in this town that doesn’t hold a memory of him. I swore I heard him in the shower two days ago, humming to whatever song was popular with the kids. I was so happy because, for a split second, I was sure that my bad dream was over and he was here. When I realized I was hearing things, it broke me. I can’t do it. I have to give myself some time to settle my grief.”
