No explanation.
Just two words written in Thomas’s careful handwriting across cream-colored paper, tucked inside the faded green backpack his lawyer had placed in my lap less than an hour after my husband d:ied.
The first envelope said Bus Stop.
My husband.
I had been married to Thomas for seven days.
The word still sounded strange in my head, like a coat I had borrowed from someone else’s closet.
