My nerves were unraveling the closer I got to home. Doom and gloom
filled my soul. Nothing had taken my mind off my predicament—or the lies
I would have to tell my family, to explain why I was in Minnesota and not
Manhattan. Even the pretty fall foliage hadn’t distracted me, and that was
saying something, because I loved all things fall.
Okay, cancel that last statement.
I love all things pumpkin. Pumpkin patches. Skinny, pumpkin spice
lattes. Pumpkin scented candles, socks and T-shirts with pumpkins and
colorful leaves on them. If I wasn’t on a strict diet, I’d add pumpkin waffles
and cookies, and pumpkin bars with cream cheese frosting.
Now that I think of it, I was obsessed with pumpkins more than the
autumn season.
But I had digressed…
My motorcycle club family had no clue I was coming, and they always
knew everything about me. Simply because I would word vomit when I’d
talk to my folks, my sister, or my girlfriends. Just showing up without
notice would probably freak them out.
Gah! Guilt pummeled me.
After I fled the Big Apple, I drove straight through to Chicago in my
loaded-down, cheap rental car, spent the night in a subpar motel, and
resumed my travels after I ate the free continental breakfast.
For the last several hours, my knuckles had been white from gripping
the steering wheel like it was my lifeline. My parents would be happy to see
me but also confused. I should’ve sent a text to give them a heads-up,
instead of surprising them. But I couldn’t call; they would hear the
devastation in my voice.
No one would ever dream I’d appear out of thin air, with my busy dance
schedule for the Nutcracker. Hell, not even I could process being in
Minnesota, but then, I could have never predicted what had transpired over
the past couple of days…
I squeezed my eyes shut, hating how I could never unsee the pictures.
Rage simmered in my veins, each image seared into my memory, and
disgust churned my stomach.
My mom in her early twenties, her topless, curvy form wrapped around
a pole in a provocative pose… Bright spotlights on stage, illuminating her
full breasts and the sparkling G-string she wore… The outfit, or lack of, had
been part of her performance when she was a Vegas dancer.
Maybe if I bathed in bleach, it would cleanse my soul and dissolve the
anger building in me.
“Why?” I mumbled to myself in a quiet voice. “Why would someone do
this?”
My eyes flashed open as a frightening thought hit me.
What if they were hiding somewhere in my bedroom?
I swept my gaze to my closet, where a masked man might be waiting to
jump out and kill me. It was the only reasonable hiding place. I had a
platform bed, low to the ground. Only a child could fit under it.
Or maybe they were watching me, after hiding a camera in a spot I’d
never find.
