From Rusty’s notebook

No Sheriff in the Mirror

Morning light falls through half-closed blinds. Above the sink, a thin frame holds a piece of cheap glass. He runs cold water over his hands.

He knows the explanations by heart: the town, his father, the way he was raised. They have filled the silence whenever he came close to saying why he left.

But his hand turned the door handle. The road gave him somewhere to go; taking it was his choice. Standing here, he can hear how often he called that distance bravery.

Nothing in the glass tells him what happens after this. He finishes the admission anyway, with no promise ready to follow it.

Cold water circles the drain.
He keeps his eyes on the glass.
