Chapter 52

• The next morning came too soon for Tapiwa’s liking. That probably had something to do with the fact that she had spent most of the night getting tangled in the sheets and had only found rest when the crack of dawn broke through the pitch black of night.
• The urge to stay in bed and hope to catch a few more hours was tempting, but now she was up and although the sky outside the house was as gray and cold as her mood, she couldn’t stay in bed.
• Mumbling to herself like a demented old woman, Tapiwa took another shower, which she hoped would energize more of her brain cells. She sadly realized her brain cells remained in hibernation as she dragged herself from the guest room she had been using to the kitchen.
