Prompt: # 24, Solace
Parker isn't sure when she started counting years by death anniversaries instead of birthdays or holidays. She doesn't care what year her calendar lists, 1970 or 2010, who cares…
It's been twenty years since mom died. Twenty-one. Twenty-two…
It's been a year since Tommy died. Two years. Three…
She spends these anniversaries alone because nobody cares, nobody has ever cared. All alone until…
The phone rings and something warm unfurls in her chest. Parker curls up on her couch and waits for the phone to ring exactly three times before picking up the receiver.
"Hello, Jarod."
"Good evening, Miss Parker."
The End
