One day becomes two, which becomes three, and before Sara knows it, she's been there the whole week. Alice has never once asked why she's there, or when she'll be leaving, or if she'd even like to stay. A strange sort of understanding has come to pass between the two of them. When Lisa calls one day and Sara answers the phone, it's like a jolt from the past to hear her sister's voice, and it's so frightening that she hangs up without thinking. It rings again. Sara forces herself to pick up.
