GHOST
SAVANNAH
It took seven months for me to kill off Georgia Gayle.
Georgia Gayle was an earnest twenty-five-year-old brunette whose
pride and joy was the vitamin store she owned in downtown Springfield.
She avoided her parents the best she could, dreamed of going back to
school for a business degree, was between boyfriends at the time, though
she’d hoped the boy who worked at the deli might ask her out for coffee.
Four years in the Madison Correctional Facility—the minimum security
prison I was trapped in until they released me nine months ago—and the
woman who was marched into that hellhole was dead by the time she was
allowed out again.
Erasing my identity as best I could just made it so that the rest of the
world knew she was long gone…
I changed my name. As a nod to who I was, I chose ‘Savannah’. Trading
my born and bred Springfield accent for a Southern drawl, I tacked on
‘Montgomery’ as my new last name when I got my first set of fake papers.
The brunette with hints of gold woven through her soft curls
disappeared when I dyed my hair black. I tried out colored contacts, too, to
really change my appearance, but like the nose job I couldn’t afford, the
dark brown contacts weren’t worth the trouble. They dried the shit out of
my eyes, and after two weeks of struggling with them and the stupid eye
drops I pocketed from the drug store, I had to be satisfied with the lighter
shade instead.
Make-up helps. A little bit of contour changed the whole shape of my
face until it became Savannah’s face. I lost twenty pounds in prison. I
thought I’d put them back on once I was on the outside again, but when the
choice is between paying rent in my shitty apartment or eating more than
one quick meal a day, a roof over my head wins. Now my cheeks are
sunken in instead of rosy and round, giving me a fittingly fox-like look.
After all, I lost everything when I got arrested. My store. My home. My
future…
Georgia was already a ghost. Her parents disowned her long before she
was sentenced. Her friends? Gone. Her reputation? Shattered.
Her sanity?
Nonexistent.
Because of one man, I lost four fucking years of my life, plus any bit of
good that was left in goody-goody Georgia Gayle.
Oh. Supposedly, I got lucky. That’s what the judge told me. I didn’t
have any priors, and part of what makes counterfeiting a crime is the intent.
The prosecutors needed to prove that I accepted those hundred dollar bills
gleefully from the real crooks, putting them into my deposits so that they
could circulate through the bank.
They couldn’t. That’s because I was a naive fucking idiot who never
thought twice about the meathead repeat customers I’d get in my store, two,
maybe three times a week for each of them, paying for their five-pound tubs
of protein powder with cash that my counterfeit pen never flagged as fake.
