APRIL: Friday the Thirteenth felt like a perfect way to celebrate the night before the two year anniversary of her father’s death.
While everyone else was giddy with butterflies over the letter writing event, April’s nerves made her nauseous. She didn’t want it to be tomorrow. She would do anything to turn back the clock. If only she could rewind her Cartier watch her daddy had bought her on her sixteenth birthday and that would set everything back in time.
But, she couldn’t.
And there was no reason to dwell.
“Do you think I should do my hair up or down?” April asked, reaching behind her to put her hair up in a sloppy ponytail, frowning at her reflection, and dropping it down again. “Is a red lippy too much?”
There was a flash of movement in the mirror and April’s heart jumped. She turned quickly, hair flying, but May was still on the other side of the room. Gooseflesh broke out on her arms and she stared at her sister wide eyed for a second before schooling her face.
Did you see that? she almost asked, but swallowed it back down.
“C’mon, hurry up and tell me,” she whined, trying to cover up her panic, “we’re going to be late.”
