155. Luther
Luther
I don’t park down the road.
I don’t hide.
I drive right up to the house.
It’s time.
My strides are steady as I take the front steps two at a time.
And my hands are steady as I use my spare key to unlock the front door.
I let the door slam shut behind me.
Joe bolts up from the couch, the glow from the TV illuminating his messy hair.
“Rocky?” He slaps a hand to his chest. “Fucking hell. What’s?—”
I don’t answer him.
I cut across the main room and start down the hall.
“What’s going on?” I hear Joe scramble to his feet. “What are you?—”
I ignore him.
And I don’t pause when I reach Kendra’s door.
