Seth cut the engine but sat in the truck watching his sister for a long moment. “She looks sad,” Lily observed. Seth sighed. “I’m not sure what’s going on with her. Something happened on her last trip overseas, but she’s not talking. I hate to see her down. She’s always the cheerful, upbeat one in the family.” “Maybe she just needs some space,” Lily said softly. “It’s not always easy to talk when wounds are still so fresh.” Seth turned his gaze on her, unpeeling her layer by layer. “Is that what happened with you, Lily?” She hesitated and gripped the handle to the door. “Some wounds never heal.” “You’ll heal,” he said quietly. “You’ll have me and my brothers and our family. Family heals even the worst hurts.” Warmth spread into her heart until her smile reflected the sheer joy his words brought her. “That’s a beautiful sentiment, Seth. And you know, I believe you. I really do. I feel…I feel like maybe everything is going to be okay again.”
