Larger Than Life Never

This day, like most days, is insufferably long and filled with people looking at her like they can’t figure out how they should be looking at her. That’s how it goes when your brother dies while simultaneously being a giant asshole.‘Sorry he’s dead but also not really?’It’s callous and hurtful and a little bit true. Frankly Max hates them all for thinking it. Hates herself for thinking it too. Billy had been mean. He’d been hateful. He’d also been smart, smarter than anyone Max knew. He’d had a really great laugh though no one in this shitty town ever heard it, not really. There are a thousand things he was and now there are precisely zero things he will be.All Max knows is that it hurts.
