“The crowd clapped and cheered with thunderous applause. Some of the adults had begun to wail, including Hattie. All that pain â€� the loss of her friends, their betrayals, and the life she’d been denied by that terrible pandemic â€� that excruciating pain pulsed through her veins and made its way out her lungs, screaming, screaming and screaming, hysterically, as she ceded control to that wonderful orator. Commander Tommy’s words were like a song, the way he composed them.”
