She knew Dawn was right. She didn’t know anything
and no one had told her anything. Tara always spoke
to Dawn like she could understand the situation, for
Tara always saw her as Dawn, an intelligent woman.“Come sit with me, and let me explain, okay?
But know I have to leave, but I’ll still be in town.”
Nodding silently, Dawn sat down beside Tara.
She could tell from the look on the woman’s face
that Tara had a good reason for leaving; she just
wanted to know what it was so she wouldn’t have to
watch another person who was so important to her
go away without understanding why they were gone.
