Brian was left slightly disgruntled and disappointed, quietly blaming Maggie for his solitude.
Once Maggie had splashed her face clean, Rosalynn suggested she cool it with an ice pack.
Maggie flashed a thankful smile and accepted the cold comfort.
“You must be hungry, right? Let’s grab a bite first.”
Rosalynn found a seat at the table, sliding a milk-filled glass across to Maggie.
“Appreciated.”
As Maggie voiced her gratitude, she tasted the milk, gently pressing the ice pack to her cheek.
The question came softly from Rosalynn, cautious in the asking. “Was it Sanford’s mother who slapped you?”Maggie, lips tight, let her gaze drop.
“My aunt visited me at the hospital early morning. She blamed her daughter’s arrest on me and slapped me. Then, Sanford’smother arrived.
She believed | caused his injury and gave me another slap.”
Twice she had been slapped that morning.
Adisaster she hadn't earned.
Rosalynn’s forehead wrinkled, her gaze on Maggie’s tender face held a soft sorrow.
