It Will Be Sam
If someone is going to kill the whole family, it will be Sam, she said.
I had no response, as Sam was one of the more normal in her family.
I think he’s the most pleasant one out of your cousins, I told her.
You did not know him as a child, she informed me. He was horrible.
What did he do?
He pushed his brother down all the time.
His big brother?
She nodded.
And?
Isn’t that enough?
I did not think so, but like I said,
Her family is not what I would call normal.
