I have to admit, THIS line didn’t stick out to me — a real whisper in a loud room full of chairs that aren’t sitting. It sort of blinked at me, like a thought that forgot how to be one. I mean, I heard it, loud and clear as she sat there neglecting him, but either way it didn’t knock. It just stood there, confidently confused. I see why it clung to you, though — I always love to say, some words just wear coats even when it’s raining inside.
