‘ you wanna tell me why the fuck, ’ tone unfurled dryly over the edge of a coffee turned lukewarm and left untouched, ‘ you stopped taking payments … twenty-six hours and seventeen minutes ago? ’

        ‘ I have a question. Might sound a wee bit rude if I just come out and say it, though. D’you mind? ’ 

envy has been sitting here, cheek resting against a fist, looking entirely put out for... well, a while, at this point. this seriously sucks. finally, when she can take no more: ‘ you like this? ’ 

     “What, so, we’re done doing it? That’s it? No more coming out? I think I missed the memo on that one.”

     “He’s great.” Great. Is that what you say about a baby. That it’s great. God, he hopes Joanna isn’t the type to offer to let him hold it. Him. The baby. God! “You know, sometimes I think babies just look like babies and people really just lie when they say they look like anyone but themselves.”
