Excerpt
I couldn’t remember the James I saw boxed into the worn, plastic
frame. He had a slight smile curving up on one side of his mouth up, while his
eyebrows bore a look of surprise. It was like he wasn’t ready for the picture,
or maybe the flash had scared him. Regardless, he looked… Well, he looked
normal. He looked like the brother I could have grown to love, could have spent
my days building rocket ships and playing baseball in the yard with. A brother
I could have walked to the park and climb the monkey bars with. There wasn’t an
ounce of insanity plastered into his still features. He was just a toddler, an
older brother, who was part of a family that loved him and cherished his
existence.
Picture James rested his tiny hand on my baby self’s even tinier
leg. I was just a baby, barely sitting up on my own. My mouth was wide with an
innocent grin and I recognized the baby as me—not because it was the obvious
assumption, but because my mother had carefully stitched my name into the
collared sweater I was wearing in the picture. James’s was stitched into his as
well. We were the ideal-looking family, the one you would see in the display
frames at the store, not on the wall. It amazed me what kind of changes
happened between when that picture was taken to where we all are now. Dead,
alone, and psycho. Some family.
