Miranda stood flicking the glass from her exposed knees and
paid little attention to the fresh cuts they left behind. A wave of guilt washed over her even though
she continued to smile. She almost felt greedy;
her entire life was built on the death of her father and the people he was
involved with. Her mother and uncle had
spent their lives teaching her, keeping her safe from the threats that now
hunted her. Sacrificing any chance they
had at normalcy. But still she smiled,
Blue close behind her as she went to wash off the morning’s relaxation.
