it.”
    “It’s mine,” I told him, swiping my eyes, my nose. “I want it back.”
    Kevin held my head against his chest. “Never mind.” I felt his cheek brush my crew, back and forth. “Never mind,” he said
     again. “Whatever it is, I’ll fix it.”
    No, I thought, you can’t fix this. “I’ve been waiting so long.” It came out a wail. Was that my voice? “I saved up the money.
     I made you buy it.” Humiliation. Degradation.
    “Forget it, Vince.” He held me another minute. I was crying so hard I couldn’t talk. I was gulping in breaths, and choking.
     Kevin finally loosened his grip and retrieved Gramps’s suit coat, which was stuck in the holly bush behind us, and wrapped
     me up in it.
    I still felt naked.
    “I’ll get you a new one. The next one’s on me,” Kevin said. “You can get a bigger one — my size.” He grinned. “Don’t worry,
     Vince.” He looked at me deep. “I’ll replace it.”
    “You can’t.”
    “I will.”

    “You
can’t
!” Didn’t he get it? He couldn’t replace it. He couldn’t fix this.
    “Never mind. You’ll be okay.”
    I’ll never be okay. What they took, what they stole from me, it’s damage. Damage beyond repair.
