Then apologetic. Then she insisted her parents had nowhere else to go. I never responded. The trespass notice remained in effect, and my attorney made it clear that any attempt to enter the property again would be documented immediately. Her parents found an apartment within twelve days, proving they had options all along.<\/p>\n<p>Months later, Everett told me he and Coralie had separated. I didn\u2019t celebrate. Their marriage was theirs to resolve. What mattered was that my house became quiet again. I restored my bedroom, rehung the photographs they had moved, and booked another island trip. This time, when I locked the front door behind me, I wasn\u2019t worried about what might happen while I was gone.
