Chapter 26 - The purple unicorn shirt

Lily kept the shirt she wore that day for almost two years.

Even after it became too small.

I found it in a drawer.

“Why keep this?”

She shrugged.

“Don’t know.”

Her therapist suggested we let Lily decide.

Eventually she cut a square from the fabric.

We used it as part of a quilt containing pieces from:

Old school clothes.

Claire’s scarf.

A baby blanket.

The purple unicorn became one small square.

Not the whole blanket.

I liked that.

What happened with Marlene became one part of Lily’s childhood.

Not its definition.
