When Eve was ten. . .

"Umm, dad? Do you think mom will come back?" I ask.
"No. She is dead. She is not coming back. Ever." My dad replies harshly speaking harder on the words dead, is and not.
"Ever? Never ever?" I say sadly.
"Never ever! I already said that! When will you understand? She died three years ago! Just let it go!" He says madly. "I am done with this!"

He slams the front door and leaves.
He leaves me crying in the arms on the butler.
And that's the horrid night I will always remember. Always and forever.
