The Snow Storm
Staring down at the picture, he feels a pang in his chest as he thinks about poor Darla.
Darla was his friend. His daddy had brought her home a few month ago, saying that she was his new mommy. Nate missed his real mommy, but he couldn't talk about her because it upset his daddy. It has only been a few months since she died and he still missed her, but he liked Darla. She was young and pretty.
She hated his Daddy, but she was nice to him. He brought her food and water. She would tell him stories and hug him. He called her 'mommy', like his father had told him to do, but she never stopped talking about getting away from the motel and from Dave.
