Two months later
They told me that they had been to the swamps, near the bird preserves.
They had built a little shrine there. It looked like a teepee, it had flowers
in it. They would leave messages there for each other. They drew me a map.
I promised I would go see it but I never went. A week after this, I read
they were missing. I immediately called the police and, sure enough, the
bodies were found, strangled. Liz had been killed first. I was arrested
that afternoon.
That was when Benjamin, my half-brother, entered
my life. I don't know how he found out about it. In any case, he took
it upon himself to get me a lawyer, to move into my house, to take over
my life. He began looking through all my belongings. Everything. What was
he looking for?
