I swatted him away when he tried to grab another one. “Bear,no.”
He tipped the box towards him. “What is all this crap?”
Inside were my journals from my high school years, the polaroids, some dried flowers Xavier gave me for our first Valentine’s Day, my employee badges from every organization I ever worked with, and my homecoming crown.
I covered the top with my arm. “Take care of the fucking dishwasher!”
Bear blinked at me, surprised.
“Now,Bear!”
“What am I supposed to?—?”
“Call maintenance! Look it up! Hit something with a hammer! I’m not your mother, I shouldn’t have to tell you this!” I jabbed at the dishwasher. “Go!”
Still fuming, I grabbed a towel from my pile and cleaned the underside of the box, carefully wiping where the water wore away at the cardboard. I needed to pick up another one. Another cardboard box. Something easily disposable.
That’s what those items were. Easily disposable. But I couldn’t bring myself to throw them away.
