Las Vegas was brighter than she expected. It was afternoon but she could still feel the nervous residue of her morning coffee. She would stay a day or two, maybe longer. The tennessee mountains felt so far from the facade of lights, traffic and crowds of people she found here. The blinding sun and dry breeze came through the window and gave her a rest from feeling the empty seat next to her. The heat and guilt slowly faded. She would stay, at least for now, she would stay.
