My Wife Was Seven Months Pregnant When She Stopped Leaving Bed—Then I Lifted the Blue Blanket and Realized My Mother Already Knew What Was Underneath

I removed her from our building access list.

Changed the garage code.

Then sat on our bed staring at the blue blanket, which police had released after determining they did not need the entire item as evidence.

Put it in a bag.

Did not throw it away.

Clara would decide.

The next afternoon, I visited Naomi’s house.
