Tentatively, I nodded. “Okay. I can think of more interesting things than Letty’s soap operas. If you’re sure you want to.”
“I do,” she said. “We’ll go crazy trying to figure out everything right now. Let’s just be normal for a bit.”
“I can’t argue with that,” I said, and then I obliged her with stories of Poncey’s latest pranks, the swim team’s gluten-free swim-ghetti disaster, and Via’s constant attempts to push her new boyfriend in my face, despite my eternal apathy.
I watched in wonder as she made faces and comments and more coffee.
It was a good two hours I got to spend with her, on a cold, rainy, late March morning, with nothing else to look forward to, except coming back to her at the end of the day. As Rachel came in, and customers soon after her, I wondered if I would have a “normal” life like that, where I wouldn’t have to say good-bye to the “normal” parts, and slink back to into the dread that accentuated my day.
