Princess was driving as we followed Sasha's car. Her sister was the one driving ahead of us, leading the way to the location Shelley was sensing. The red taillights of the car in front flickered through the dark, and I watched them like they were the only thing keeping me grounded.
The car was quiet. Princess focused on the road, her hands gripping the steering wheel tight, while I kept looking out the window. I watched the trees blur past, my mind racing with a million thoughts about Uncle PP and what we might find. I didn't want to talk. I didn't want to think. I just wanted to get there.
"So, what did the unfortunate father say about your little pups inside you?" Aunty Sali said from the back seat, her voice cutting through the silence like a knife.
I felt my heart skip a beat. My attention snapped away from the window and back toward her.
