Chapter 7

When I found Evan, he was sitting alone on the rooftop.

It was the highest point in the Haven. I used to come up looking for him all the time, because he went there whenever he wanted to be alone.

He would sit on the edge with his legs hanging over the drop, like a man at the end of the world.

Back then, I'd scream at him to move back before he fell, drag him in with everything I had, plant myself in his lap so he couldn't return to the edge, and hang off his neck, asking questions.
