New Life (25 page)
No doubt her mother would notice Mr. Bailey’s
dark eyes and thick lashes. He’s using your bathroom now. Next
he’ll be eating your food and asking to borrow money, then…God
knows what else.
It’s just a shower, she told the invisible
presence of her parents. Once a week he’d take a shower and,
anyway, he’d be gone soon. She’d find him another place to
live.
Soon.
