Eleven hours in his Jeep Renegade were more uncomfortable than he’d
expected they would be. His sister, Donna, had sounded desperate on the
phone, but probably not as desperate as he’d been that same day two years
ago. Marc’s life had changed that morning; his comfortable, carefree life
had disappeared in a heartbeat—a heart that pumped out blood faster than
he held it in. They weren’t rushed to the hospital; Jed couldn’t be moved.
It took them hours to pry the raspberry and blackberry packages from
Marc’s hands.

Screams and shouts still echoed in Marc’s ears his own screams and
shouts, as he knelt there asking Jed why he’d had to forget the berries.
The road in front of him blurred for a moment, then cleared. At first,
Marc blamed the radio station for the tears. The songs had changed from
upbeat pop to country spirituals, so he knew he’d crossed the border into
Arkansas.
Jed had forgotten the berries.
Marc’s hands gripped the wheel, and he pulled to the side of the road so
as not to swerve into oncoming traffic. He turned off the radio in the middle
of a sad, lonely singer crooning a sad, lonely song and wiped his eyes.
Stop this. Jed’s dead and thinking about the berries isn’t helping you
pay attention to the road.
His eyes ached. Where had the time gone? The past eleven hours had
flown by and dragged, the scenery remembered and forgotten, and his eyes
were just weary from the drive still in front of him.
That’s all it was. They were just tired. He wiped his eyes again and got
back on the road.
The GPS said it was another thirty minutes before he’d pull into the
driveway of Grammom’s house. He knew he was getting close as the signs
for the battleground popped up on US-71. Before long he’d see the tree line
of the Pea Ridge National Park. A few tiny roads behind and around and
he’d be driving through the tall grass to park beside the old, peeling whiteand-red trimmed house.
For now, all he had to look at were clouds and other cars, especially
slower cars in front of him that never seemed to slide into the travel lane.
He sped up to pass a station wagon with six kids inside, the mother singing
at the top of her lungs to a song on the radio from the looks of it. Her left
hand extended out the window as though praising God, and the other
gripped the wheel as though she were a Formula One driver.
He hadn’t been back in years, and he’d never managed to show Jed his
Grammom’s home. His eyes watered again as he sped down the open road
into Arkansas, following his memories down the dark asphalt slash in the
countryside.
