She imagines two women who have lived together for forty years. Their eyes haze over and they stare somewhat blankly when the other speaks, not because they are bored, but because they love each other too much. And one must begin to say good-bye, sometime.

I try to leave Lola for a man who loves me, who will support me, whose children I will have. A farmhouse in Vermont. My own studio. A simple life. "Maybe there could be a sheep or a goat!" I cry, overexcited. But I can't go. I'm afraid. There are fascists there.

This one's the lightest in tone (if you can stand the rich people soap opera) otherwise The Art Lover for bereavement or Defiance for confession to murder.
