This story comes after “Securing One’s Own Legacy” and is a tale of Zenobia. Warning: it covers grief and loss.

Zenobia looked good in black. And she was in no position to appreciate it.
She was actually mourning the man, although she doubted anyone in her family would believe that.
Lewis had been a sweet man, a patient man, and willing to do just about anything to keep his family off of his back, which had included a sweet but entirely sham marriage to Zenobia – a marriage he had, in the weeks before his death, explained to their pastor exactly how sham it was.
