Excerpt
Prologue
I knew the moment I
heard the words slip from the man in uniform that my world would be turned
upside down. Shattered. Everything ended that dreadful day, including my will
to live.
***
I throw myself over the
casket after the preacher spoke words of peace and light. I grip the hard wood,
bawling, refusing to let them sink this box to the bottom of that hole. No one attempts
to stop me. They all watch in sorrow as I yell, asking God why.
I finally feel my father
and Josh’s father pull me away. They hand me the folded flag—the tainted
reminder of all that is left of him.
I stand in shock as they
lower his body and cover him in dirt. I stare numbly at the mound of earth that
now separates us. I will never see him again. I will never hear him again.
Everything is destroyed.
“We’ll take you home,”
my mother says, but I shake my head. “Bri, it would be best if you left. Let’s
eat something.”
Turning to her, eyes
void of emotion, I say, “Take me home and leave me there. I want to be
alone.”
In the silence of the
car, they respect my wishes. I hold on to that flag as if it were Josh I was
holding.
“I want to be alone,” I
tell them as they pull into the driveway before they choose to come inside with
me.
“But—”
“No, mom. Not today.” I
get out of the car; the black of my dress feels heavy as I drag with me the
darkness this day has brought. It’s real. As if I would
somehow wake up and have dreamt the visit the officer and chaplain made not too
long ago.
As the door closes
behind me, I lean against it—white contrasting to my black— and stare at this
home. I calmly put the flag down on the console table. I walk a few steps in,
grab the lamp and strike it onto the floor. I sweep my arms across the small
table in the living room, causing everything on it to fall and break. The metal
dish clings against the tile.
“Ahhh!” My throat hurts
from the exertion. I yell again and again until I’m sore. I shatter the vase
with flowers my friends sent me. Water pours from the broken glass as the roses
attempt to soak up the last bit. I walk to them and stomp them with my heel.
They can’t live if he’s dead.
I can’t live if he’s
dead. I can’t live. I can’t.
I fall onto my knees,
the tears a common emotion for me, and look up at the heavens. “I only have one
question, God; why’d you bring him to me to steal him away?”
With that, I curl into
my side and lose myself.
