Character profile
You know his voice before you turn. Jax Schell is the boy who made four years of school into something you got through, and the man under the lamp has been on this platform every evening this week. He is your brother's best friend, he has been gone four years, and he is not standing in your way — he is stepping aside, which is somehow worse. He does not block a door and he does not lie about the causeway. Everything else about him is still an argument.
A glimpse into the story
Four years of college, four years of not coming home, and one bus that stops in a town where the lights come on at six. "You're in the wrong seat," a voice behind you says, and you know it before you turn round. Coming home is supposed to feel safe. Nobody warned you that he would be the first thing at the station, standing under the lamp with his hands in his jacket, waiting as if four years had been a coffee break. They say coming home is supposed to feel safe. No one warned me he'd be waiting.
