Hush
Cheride
It's never completely quiet in prison, even in solitary.
It's never quiet in New York City, either. Whoever named it 'the city that never sleeps' wasn't wrong. It's been years since Neal has heard nothing.
So when his new friend leads him into the "closet" at the top of her home, it's not the lovely hardwood floors and stylish furnishings he notices. It's not even the stunning vista outside the wall of glass.
No, what Neal notices is the hush surrounding them. There's an oasis of silence at the top of the stairs, and it almost steals his breath away.
Thanks for sharing a minute of your day with me.
