Can't Have Heaven



Jarod says the Centre is evil. The Centre says Jarod is lying.

The two are mutually exclusive.



Miss Parker doesn’t care; she doesn’t care about Jarod’s quest and his answers.

Her wants are simple: no more siblings, no twins, no questions, no answers.


She wants her mother to be in her grave – or, ideally, not to have died.

She wants her lover back. She wants him to come with her life, youth, and innocence.

Basically she wants the last twenty-something years never to have happened.



She settles for the whiskey and a phone call from a man God-knows-how-many miles away.
