“It’ll mean remembering Carlos Macanetti.”
“Fuck Carlos Macanetti.”
But, in reality, I couldn’t dismiss him. I had to accept that parts of his confession about Uncle Ricky and I were correct.
I recalled the blood.
But I recalled nothing else.
“What are you feeling?” Saul said.
“A whole heap of stuff.”
“What’s in your head?”
“Too much. It’s like shards of a broken vase,” I whispered. “You find some pieces immediately, others you discover with a little more effort. But it’s when you start to look beneath the couches, against the wall, in places where others wouldn’t bother, that you find the remaining fragments, the ones that collectively restore the whole piece and thus give you the answer in its entirety.” I turned to Saul. “You know what I mean?”
“The glue,” he said, “you’ll need the glue to connect the fractured pieces of your life.”
“Exactly.”
Saul smiled, grabbed my hand. “Let’s go find that glue.”
“Yes, let’s.”
And we slid into Saul’s new vehicle and quietly, unobtrusively slipped away.

About the Author
Neven Carr lives in what she terms is an author’s haven; a quaint fishing village on the east coast of Queensland, Australia, called Toogoom. Her former years as a Primary School teacher provided her with many life experiences, some treasured, some not so treasured, but ones she continually draws upon when writing her novels. Neven Carr now devotes her time to her three passions, her family, reading and of course, writing.
Forgotten is her debut novel.
