melinda had been going through the motions since she heard the news. first it felt like a lie, a sick joke that someone was playing but then her father never came home. after that, she was trying her best to remove herself from her body because all she knew was she needed to be there for her mother, be strong. it was only now that she was alone, in one of her family's apothecaries that she started to feel it all. her mother decided to temporarily close the apothecaries for the holidays and they had just said their final good-byes. it was just her and her mother as they didn't want to risk any kind of attention. in this moment it all felt so very real. just as she felt her first of many tears run down her cheeks, her knees gave and she was sliding down the side of the table and crumbling onto the ground.
