EPILOGUE

It was early morning, before sunrise and Ethan was sitting on the porch swing when Susan came downstairs. She came out wearing a thick terrycloth robe and sat next to him.

They were quiet as they watched the sky turn from black to blue.

Susan smiled. "Sorry, Ethan, I think I've found my place."

Ethan smiled back at her. Freak.

"Freak," she responded as they watched the sunrise of a brand-new day.
