Love Me Forever (28 page)

She’d been ready to finish off that bottle of spirits herself by the time she left him. But she had come up with a weak excuse to tell the others. She’d told Aunt Elizabeth that Anne, one of her friends from Kettering, had written that she was seriously ill, the doctors not offering much hope. Kelsey had to visit, of course, and give what comfort she could. And Uncle Elliott had offered to escort her.

Elizabeth hadn’t noticed anything amiss. Kelsey’s pallor could be credited to worry over her friend. And Jean, bless her, didn’t badger her with her usual hundreds of questions simply because she didn’t recognize the name of this particular friend. But, then, Jean had matured a great deal during the past year. A tragedy in the family had a way of interrupting childhood, sometimes permanently. Kelsey would almost have preferred the hundreds of questions from her twelve-year-old sister that used to test her patience. But Jean was still mourning.

And when Kelsey didn’t return home from the
visit to Kettering? Well, she would have to worry about that later. Would she ever even see her sister or Aunt Elizabeth again? Did she dare, when they might discover the truth? She didn’t know. Right then, she only knew that nothing would ever be the same for her again.
