Julie had gone missing.Again.Blair was lounging on my couch, legs draped over Leroy’s lap while he dutifully pitted cherries for her like the doting wolf-dad he was. She popped one in her mouth and made a face like she’d just smelled something rotten.“She’s still playing the drama queen,” Blair said, chewing with unnecessary force. “She really thinks disappearing will make Scott love her more? Please. The more she pulls this crap, the faster he’s gonna lose whatever patience he’s got left.”I raised an eyebrow, sipping my iced coffee. “She’s not acting out. She’s scared.”Blair paused. “Scared of what? ”“No,” I said quietly. “Scared of what comes next.”I’d done my reading. Mid-stage ALS meant her body was betraying her piece by piece—couldn’t walk, couldn’t dress, couldn’t even hold a spoon without trembling like a pup during their first shift. Dignity doesn’t go down easy, especially not for someone like Julie who’d built her whole image on being beautiful, perfect, untouchable.
