Evans told me the story he made up about Ava's mum having ovarian cancer and that being the cause of her death. He fought hard to shield her from the truth about the family. I would have done the same for my sister if I had one. He also told me about Ava pawning the necklace her mom left for as her twentieth birthday gift. Such a kind girl, going to that extent for her sorry ass brother, no offense. To seal up our memorable time in L.A., I had bought back the necklace and was going to present it to her when I got back from my units in L.A. So far, everything has been perfect. She has been perfect. Giving me all the things I needed to stay sane. There were a few holes in my L.A. business, so I stepped out to handle them before we leave back to Seattle. All the same, deep down the problem
