J.E. Mayhew

“Old age troubled Vikki more than she cared to admit. She looked at her parents who had worked so hard all their lives and shivered when they started talking about how she would look after them, one day. They often harked back to a mythical past when older relatives lived with their extended families and didn’t have to resort to the kind of accommodation like the one she stood in front of now. They had spent almost their entire adult life running a small business and she couldn’t remember them looking after any elderly relatives.”
― J.E. Mayhew, Dark Visions of Torment
