My name is Evelyn. Evelyn Rose Mercer. Though most people who knew me in my younger years called me Evie, I never once imagined that at seventy-three years old I would be sitting on a wooden park bench with one suitcase at my feet and twelve dollars in my coat pocket. Not after thirty-eight years of loving a man. Not after thirty-eight years of cooking his meals, ironing his shirts, keeping his house, raising his children, and making myself smaller every single time he needed more room.
