Chapter 11 - Grant And Rachel Unbox The Old Lake House Memories

Rachel used a pocketknife to slice open the packing tape, lifting the flaps to reveal old photo albums and keepsakes. “She loved that cabin in the woods before everything went wrong... before the arguments started,” Rachel murmured softly.

Grant picked up a stack of polaroid photographs taken during the final summer weekend Natalie spent there alone. He flipped through pictures of the wooden dock, the sunset over the water, and the sunlit kitchen window.
A cold shiver ran down his spine as he reached the bottom of the box.
