She gasped.
“This is like… old people… porn!”
“Hazel,” I said as I started to laugh.”
“This is not funny! Gram had a man in her life! She had a lover!”
“Yes, she did,” I said. “Looks like she had a very active love life too.”
“She never said a word though.”
“It was her secret. Let me ask you something, love. Was she happy all the time?”
Hazel narrowed her gaze. “Why would you ask that.”
“You know why I’m asking that.”
“Atlas…”
“She was getting it good. So good it made her happy all the time.”
“Stop it! That’s so gross! That’s my grandmother you’re talking about!”
“They obviously didn’t do it here in this house,” I said.
“Obviously. Unless they snuck around.”
“Maybe on the dining room table. When you were sleeping.”
Hazel punched my arm again. “I don’t know what to do right now! This is all too much. I’m afraid to open any other boxes.”
“Just hope you don’t find any videotapes to watch.”
Hazel swung again.
I caught her hand and pulled her toward me.
“Listen to me, love. Your grandmother was obviously a spitfire. From the little I know of her, this doesn’t surprise me. And if you need to look at it a different way, try this… she lived a fun life. A good life. An active life. Is it weird to think about your grandmother getting between the sheets? Probably. But think about how happy she was.”
“I know,” Hazel said. “But still. It’s Gram.”
“Now tell me what you want me to do here. I can clean this stuff up and get you a safe. I can go through anything else you want.”
“I know what I want to do.”
“Tell me.”
“Charles.”
“Your grandmother’s lover.”
Hazel cringed. “Yes. Her… yeah…”
“What do you want to call him?Midnight knight? Fuck buddy?”
“Stop. Let me finish. I want to find him.”
“You want to find Charles?”
