Chapter 163: Chapter 163: Funeral For A Friend

TIME

BOOK SIX: THE ETERNAL DAUGHTER SERIES

Sand shifted under my sneakers, making me wish I'd just taken my shoes off instead of trying to walk the beach in my regular footwear. A silly thing to think about, really, in my present circumstances, but that was how my brain worked. Dragging me off on tangents to protect me when I needed it most.

After all, I wasn't here for a nice day in the sunshine or a relaxing afternoon reading a good book, playing volleyball or even strolling the shore and enjoying the waves. No, nothing of the kind, and though I did my best to distract from the sad truth of my presence, there was no way to avoid what was coming.

A funeral for a friend.
