The bed was empty, the sheets wrinkled and crumpled. A surgical glove lay on the bedside table, next to a half-full glass of apple juice.

She started to laugh hysterically.

Half-full. How funny was that?

She'd been a half-full type of girl all her life, even when she was still living at the trailer park, even when she'd given up her little girl.

But not now, not as she opened the drawer and saw a folded note with her name scrawled across it lying atop a pair of his pajamas. From now on, life was always going to be half-empty.
