The Gray Sister
One
When I remember I see things differently. My perceptions change from day to day and from one moment to the next. Sometimes I see things myself, or at least the way I thought I saw them then. Sometimes I see them through Jeffrey's eyes, or through our daughter's. I have become one of the Gray Sisters, the Graeae, the old women of Greek myth who shared a single eye between them. I am often blind. Some of what happened I will never understand and so it is lost to me forever. But I never see through Carolyn's eyes. Her perception is closed to me, as I hope it will remain forever.
