Bird Song (73 page)
I looked at Graham’s confused expression and shook my head.
“Nothing, just talking to myself,” I said to him with a half-hearted smiled.
“Okay.
As long as you don’t start having full on conversations with yourself or anything,” he chuckled.
When he walked away, I looked out of the window and felt the sadness that had retreated slowly start to return.
My emotions were a jumbled mess, my feet were hurting, and I had seen a glimpse of what my life might become, a life that I once thought I wanted but now knew wasn’t the right path for me.
Things were becoming far more complicated now that the truth was out in the open, in every aspect, and I just couldn’t help but wonder what would happen when Spring Break was over, school started back up, and the lies fell back into place again.
How would I be able to pretend that I was whole when half of me was gone, and the other half had shattered?
How can a heart hate someone so much, and love them even more?

To every single person who hounded me non-stop to continue Grace and Robert’s story.
Your love and interest in their story has given me more than enough reason to keep their journey going.
