Yesterday and the Day Before

Elly and David Ward lost their daughter three-and-a-half years ago, and nothing reminds them more of this than seeing the children trick-or-treating on their street during Halloween night.   She was twelve.  Neither parent has dealt very well with the loss of their child. David has introverted and spends nights in his deceased daughter’s bed.  Elly has just had a meaningless affair. But now, it is Halloween night and their memories are strong with their daughter’s death…and the children that they blame for it.
