Before And Ever Since (9781101612286) (2012) - Plot & Excerpts
NO, NO, NO, NO. GOOSE BUMPS RAN THE LENGTH OF MY body and back again. Ben Landry. As I stared into that face, I felt the old hurt I thought I’d forgotten seep through my bones right down through my feet, rooting me to the floor. “You’re back,” I said, hearing the words and how my voice suddenly went all croaky and hating how stupid that was. But I was painfully aware that I had thrown on only a pair of jeans and a sweatshirt, and otherwise still looked like I’d just crawled out of bed. Additionally, after twenty-one years, I was looking at probably the only person on the planet that ever really knew me. And could turn my life upside down. “Yes, I am,” he said, his voice quiet. “Mr. Landry,” my mother said from behind me as she moved me over from where I’d dropped anchor in the doorway. “Come on in.” “Just Ben, ma’am,” he said, shaking her hand and then gesturing toward where I stood with my heart slamming against my ribs.
