Obsession
She is transfixed by them.
She counts them compulsively until she is sure she has the right number. They are unique save for fifty-two jagged half-moons that match and adorn his neck, chest, and thighs; she leaves those alone.
She traces and studies the rest, running her nails and fingertips over the ridges, memorizing their curves and tears.
She feels like a one-woman forensic team as she pictures angles of attack and the scenarios that could have led to each permanent reminder of a life now in the rearview.
She is fascinated and awed by how they make him him.
Here we go again! :)
