Wesley rubbed his face with both hands, his voice dropping to a desperate whisper. “I know she went too far, and I am so sorry, but throwing us out in front of the neighbors is just unnecessary drama.”

Monica intervened before Serena had to speak again, her voice cutting through Wesley’s excuses like a razor. “Mr. Thorne, do not use the word drama when referring to a felony assault and a legal eviction process.”

Beverly grabbed Wesley’s arm, her fingers digging into his sleeve as she pointed a trembling finger at Serena. “Tell them, Wesley! Tell this woman and these people that this is your house and she has no right to treat me like a common intruder.”

Wesley looked at his mother, then at the officers, and finally at the porch floorboards where a small crack in the wood seemed to fascinate him. The silence stretched until the only sound was the rhythmic scraping of the locksmith’s tools against the brass plate.
