#1
I remember the ache of the strain on my fragile neck muscles and the root of my tongue. I was three years old when my mother told me about it. I have tried to remember my babysitter’s face, but all I can remember is the funky ritual.
#2
I was working at a shoe shine shop when I met Steve, the banker, who would poison the core of my family’s life. I didn’t know at the time that the banker would never press another coin into my hand.
#3
I remember the last day I worked in the shoe store, when my stepfather, Henry, was extremely quiet. I didn’t understand his worry or his heartbreak. I loved Henry with all my heart, and he loved me and my mother.
#4
My father was a changed man after he was saved by Mama. He had saved his money and now had something to offer his wife and son. They went back to him, and after a week, he bought the cousin angle and broke out his best cigars and cognac for the thieves.
