Autumn Grace: Part 4

He still wasn’t speaking to her as he put the car in park. He got out and walked around to her car door and opened it, “I want to show you something. Please.” He held out his hand and she took it.

“Do you see that house, the fourth one from the left?” He asked her quietly, pointing to a beautiful, three story Tudor-style house. She nodded

Autumn Grace: Part 3

February 13th 2007 00:50

Autumn-Grace had snuck into the house much later that night and went straight to her bedroom. She needed to be alone to think about what had happened between her and Tyler.

Lana heard her daughter come in and looked at the clock. It was after 2:00a.m. Lana knew that Autumn-Grace had been at Tyler’s. She had never come in so late before and in her mother’s heart, Lana knew what had happened between the young couple. She sat up on the edge of the bed with mixed emotions. Lana wanted to go to her daughter and talk to her. Instead, she lay back down and fought the urge

They would provide service to her, no matter how long she had to wait. Finally, after about fifteen minutes, an attendant lumbered out to the car.

“Can I help you?” The older gentleman asked her, as he absent-mindedly chewed on a toothpick and leaned against the driver’s side door

Autumn Grace: Part 1

February 13th 2007 00:30

Autumn-Grace sat at the kitchen table with her mother, Lana. They stared at each other as the ceiling fan hummed and the blades made dark shadows on the walls. It pulled the odor of burning leaves in through the open window to mix with the faint lilac scent of the card and torn envelope on the table. It was an invitation to a cousin’s rehearsal dinner. Lana and Autumn-Grace were invited. Tyler was not.

Everyone knew that Autumn-Grace was dating Tyler. This was the third invitation over the past few months that had specifically excluded Tyler, in her mind, and Autumn-Grace was furious. Lana almost smiled but thought better of it
