Excerpt
Wrapping my burgundy fleece throw around my shoulders, I tucked my knees closer to my chest and took a tentative sip of my coffee. Chilled from the cool winter weather, I exhaled, smiling as the puff of vapor floated between my lips. The air was thick with the early morning fog. A light drizzling mixture of sleet and snow sprinkled onto the parched, cracked earth. It’d been a hot and dry summer here in Northern Texas, and the fall hadn’t given us much rain, either. Now, with winter setting in, we’d managed to get a bit more moisture, but nowhere close to what we needed.
I’d always enjoyed the rain; it made me think of my father. He’d say, “Rain is bits of heaven falling on our shoulders, little one.”
Brushing away the tears under my eyes, I tried to stop myself from losing control over my grief. They had told me it would get easier with time, but almost a year had passed, and every day he crept his way into my memories. Death was a way of life, I knew this, but to lose him before I had the chance to tell him goodbye hurt more than I wanted to admit. All I wanted was one more heartbeat.
