Shameful
Prologue
Humid night air whistled through the open car windows, whipping
Shame’s hair into his tired, gritty eyes. The sting served to keep him
awake and focused on his goals. For the first time in too long, he had a
damn good reason to be glad he was alive.
After almost seven years of being cut off from his family, Shame was
finally on his way home.
His gaze on the double yellow line in the middle of the road, Shame
wiped a hand through his overly long hair. Exhausted from too many
days on the road and a vast number of misgivings—everything from the
guilt he harbored over sleeping with so many different people throughout
the years, to not being able to remember the sound of his daughter’s
laugh—the need for a haircut slipped his mind. That small, insignificant
detail had managed to escape his attention until now, when it was too
late to do anything about it. He was too close to his destination to stop.
Though he wanted to look his best when he saw Maria and Sophie again,
beggars couldn’t be choosers. He was too impatient to postpone their
reunion for even the minuscule amount of time it would take to make
himself more presentable.
He could only pray they would overlook his shortcomings. Wasn’t
that what family was all about? The shock they would receive from
seeing him again, alive and well, would be enough to make them forgive
his disheveled appearance.
