Once they get in the car. Quinlyn casually wiped the blood off the knife with a tissue. When she looked up, she realized everyone was staring at her. “Tule What’s up” she acked, confused.

The three young guys in the RV quickly looked away and shifted the conversation, but their minds were still clearly full of thoughts.

Quinlyn’s life in that small town had been so hard. All the skills and calmness she had were the result of years of struggle. Just thinking about it made them feel a lot of sympathy for her.

After Marvin got promoted, his work gave him an apartment in the city, but it had gotten pretty rundown. Marvin’s daughter was home from college for the holidays, and today, she was in the kitchen with her mom, busy hosting guests.

When they arrived downstairs, Quinlyn opened the car door and saw the familiar little building. She paused for a second, lost in thought

Joseph noticed her odd look and asked, “What’s wrong? You’ve been here before?”

Quinlyn lowered her eyes and whispered, “I’ve passed by here before.”

Quinlyn hesitated for a moment and then slowly took off her shoes at the entryway. As soon as she stepped into the living room, she bumped into a young girl.

Even though they hadn’t seen each other in years, Quinlyn recognized her instantly. It was Marvin’s only daughter, Jolie Duffy.

“Hi,” Quinlyn said, awkwardly clutching the candy jar in her hands, clearly a little shy.

“Whoa, Quinlyn, you’re shy now?” Stanley teased, poking her cheek. He was surprised by her change. Joseph quickly stepped in and pulled his arm away.
