A friend told her he was dying and that he wanted to talk to her one last time. It had been 38 years since she had seen him or heard his voice. Thirty eight, peaceful, happy years. Instinct told her not to respond. What did she owe him? It had taken years to get her self-esteem back after their relationship. Despite the passage of time some scenes in her head still made her cringe with shame and embarrassment. Why should she feel ashamed, she wasn't the one who was mean and cruel? The shame came from her anger at herself for allowing herself to stay and tolerate him and not leave sooner.
