Ben was growing so big. Everyone had warned her about it and she'd known, but experiencing it was something else completely. Still, there were days that he looked around as if there were something missing.
She couldn't find it in her heart to ask because honestly? She felt the same way. She salted her window sills at night and she couldn't tell you why. She sometimes double checked her peripheral vision, afraid that there was something there (there never was).
And honestly, if anyone asked about the year that Ben was eleven, she'd feel as if she were a third party watching herself answer. It was strange. She knew something was off but what it was, she didn't know. Like a wall in her mind that she'd been told not to scratch.
"Mom! Kyle's having people over to play video games, can I go?"
"Yeah sure, Sweetie. Just come home before curfew ok?"
"Ok mom. sure."
"Love you!" She calls as he bounds out the door and runs across the street. She ignores the large dark car as it rolls down the street. She ignores it until her brain hurts because she has a bathroom that needs to be cleaned and a yoga class that needs to be taught.
