The apartment became so quiet that I could hear the hum of the refrigerator, the distant traffic on Michigan Avenue, and my own ragged breathing. It felt as if someone had reached into my chest and was slowly squeezing my heart.<\/p>\n

With the same terror.\u00a0Don\u2019t tell her.<\/i>\u00a0Don\u2019t tell the dull daughter. Don\u2019t tell the responsible one. Don\u2019t tell the dead girl who is still paying for their lives.<\/p>\n
