Juno doesn’t mind the cemetery. It’s quiet for one, and it’s on the way from home to the beach. She’s all for cutting through lots, alleys, people’s backyards even. Whatever makes her trip a bit shorter.

She almost doesn’t notice Chris, he’s standing so still. Just another person visiting the grave of someone they lost, there’s no real reason to pay any attention. By the time it clicks that it is him, she’s already gone past, looping back around behind him. That’s how she notices it, the gravestone with his name. “Shit.”
