- ABOUT THE EDITOR
“Just think on it, Sook—if Luna hadn’t gone on the Collins side of the hedge to make out in private, maybe Sarah Newlin would have called someone to come get her, or managed somehow to crawl out of the house. She might even have made it into her car. Then I think Mom and I would have had a visit from the police for sure.”
But that hadn’t happened, and now Sarah Newlin would be in jail for a while anyway. That was something, a big something. “I’m not drawing any big life lesson from yesterday,” I said.
“Were you sure you were going to?”
“Well, yes.”
“We survived,” Sam said. “And my brother got married to the woman he loves. And that’s all that’s important.”
“Sam, do you really think that?” I didn’t want to pick at him, but I was genuinely curious.
My boss smiled at me. “Nah. But what would you say the moral of the day was? There was a lot of hate, there was some love. The love won out for Craig, the hate did Jim Collins in. End of story.”
Sam was right, as far as his “moral” went.
But I didn’t think it was truly the end of the story.
