Sometimes you find a family where you least expect it, but, when you most need it.
We’ve all thought to ourselves that we could solve a murder, right? You watch enough true crime dramas, you pick up a thing or two. You’ve watched NCIS enough to understand how forensics works. How hard could it be? Round up the suspects. Pester them to death (no pun intended). Solve the crime.
But what happens when part way into your investigation, you find that you care for your suspects more than you thought? What if they have come to see you as the grandma they need in their lives? How do your emotions NOT cloud your judgment?
In your quest to be useful, valued, you stumble into relationships that far outweigh your means to an end. You find value in those you’ve gathered near you. Their web of relationships is a tangled mess. Yet, somehow you solve the crime and all that adrenaline leaves your body. Now what?
Sometimes you find a family where you least expect it, but when you most need it.
