Chapter 13

In the bathroom, the sound of water pattering.

The autumn night was getting cold.

But Wayne still had the cold water running, showering himself.

Today’s every expression of Rosalynn kept replaying in his mind, especially the image of her tearful, ashamed, frightened, and desperate gaze at him.
