Chapter 7
Chapter 7 opens with the narrator descending to the kitchen, only to be greeted by a scene of utter disorder and turmoil. Nina, in a state of heightened agitation, has taken apart the kitchen, tossing pots, pans, and broken dishes across the floor in a frenzy. Amid her chaotic search through the refrigerator, she inadvertently knocks over a container of milk, sending it splashing across the floor in a flood of white liquid that mixes with the shattered remnants of the kitchenware. The scene feels…-

Chapter 8
Chapter 8 Nina must have thrown half the contents of the refrigerator on the kitchen floor, so I have to make a run to the grocery store today. Since apparently, I’m also going to be cooking for them, I select some raw meat and seasoning that I can use to throw together a few meals. Nina loaded her credit card onto my phone. Everything I buy will be automatically charged to their account. In prison, the food options were not too exciting. The menu rotated between chicken, hamburgers, hotdogs, lasagna,…-

Chapter 9
Chapter 9 Nina is at her PTA meeting tonight—the one I ruined by throwing out her notes. She is grabbing a bite to eat with some of the other parents, so I’ve been tasked with making dinner for Andrew and Cecelia. The house is so much quieter when Nina isn’t here. I’m not sure why, but she just has an energy that fills the entire space. Right now I’m alone in the kitchen, searing a filet mignon in the frying pan before sticking it in the oven, and it’s heavenly silent in the Winchester…-

Chapter 10
Chapter 10 A week later, I come down to the living room and find Nina holding a full garbage bag. My first thought is: Oh God, what now? In only a week of living with the Winchesters, I feel like I’ve been here for years. No, centuries. Nina’s moods are wildly unpredictable. At one moment, she’s hugging me and telling me how much she appreciates having me here. In the next, she’s berating me for not completing some task she never even told me about. She’s flighty, to say the least. And Cecelia…-

Chapter 11
Chapter 11 “Millie!” Nina’s voice sounds frantic on the other line. “I need you to pick up Cecelia from school!” I’ve got a pile of laundry balanced in my arms, and my cell phone is between my shoulder and my ear. I always pick up immediately when Nina calls, no matter what I’m doing. Because if I don’t, she will call over and over (and over) until I do. “Sure, no problem,” I say. “Oh, thank you!” Nina gushes. “You’re such a dear! Just grab her from the Winter Academy at…-

Chapter 12
Chapter 12 Even though I had resigned myself to minding my own business about Nina’s mental health history, I can’t help but wonder. I work for this woman. I live with this woman. And there’s something else strange about Nina. Like this morning as I’m cleaning the master bathroom, I can’t help but think nobody with good mental health could leave the bathroom in this sort of disorder—the towels on the floor, the toothpaste hugging the basin of the sink. I know depression can sometimes make…-

Chapter 13
Chapter 13 opens with the narrator busy vacuuming the living room when she notices a shadow moving outside the window. Curiosity piqued, she steps closer to the window and sees Enzo working in the backyard, digging at the flower bed in the front yard. From what the narrator gathers, Enzo appears to rotate between houses, taking on various landscaping tasks. His presence has become a normal part of the household rhythm, yet something about the day feels different as the narrator’s thoughts start to…-

Chapter 14
Chapter 14 I’ve been living with the Winchesters for about three weeks when I have my first parole officer meeting. I waited to schedule it for my day off. I don’t want them to know where I’m going. I’m down to monthly meetings with my officer, Pam, a stocky middle-aged woman with a strong jaw. Right after I got out, I was living in housing subsidized by the prison, but after Pam helped me get that waitressing job, I moved out and got my own place. Then after I lost the waitressing job, I never…-

Chapter 15
Chapter 15 This Saturday afternoon, Nina is throwing a small PTA gathering in her backyard. They’re meeting up to plan something called “field day” in which the kids play in a field for a few hours, and somehow it takes months of planning to prepare for it. Nina has been talking about it nonstop lately. And she has texted me no less than a dozen times to remind me to pick up the hors d’oeuvres. I’m starting to get stressed because, as usual, the entire house was a mess when I woke up this…-

Chapter 16
Chapter 16 It’s safe to say I hate every single woman at this PTA meeting. There are four of them total, including Nina. I’ve memorized their names. Jillianne (Jilly-anne), Patrice, and Suzanne (not to be confused with Jillianne). The reason I have memorized their names is because Nina will not let me leave the backyard. She’s been making me stand in the corner, constantly at attention in case they need something. At least the hors d’oeuvres are a success. And Nina has no idea Andrew picked them…-
