The sunlight somehow found a way to peek out from behind the thick, gray
clouds. It had been rainy the last couple of days as a dreary cold front
hung over Cape Cod.
A red Honda Civic slowly drove onto the narrow gravel pathway. The driver turned off the ignition, and drew in a deep breath of the salty sea air.
The smell of the ocean and the creek brought back so many memories of her childhood. She missed this place terribly. As much as she wanted to move back, the pain of living here would be overwhelming.
She sat quietly in the car for a minute as the brief sunlight warmed her face. Today she was visiting someone very close to her that she had not talked to since her last memory of him, one year prior.
Her hands gently started to shake as she reached for the bouquet of flowers on the passenger seat. She grabbed a tissue before stepping out of the car.
With the sun to her back and the bouquet of flowers cradled in her arms, Joey slowly walked up the hill.
