“My jacket.
That’s my jacket.
There, in the middle of the floor. She’s made a small nest in the center of the room, my worn denim jacket laid out, arms open on the ground, its fleece collar winking in the weak light. My wool hat is set just above it like a punctuation mark.
Or a pillow.”
Omg rosa ☹️

“she dug around in the cooler and produced two bright green grapes, which she used for its eyes.
She said it looked just like me.
“Is this a joke?” Kenji had said, because, of course, Kenji was there.
He’d heard about our plans and insisted on joining us, and the trip nearly began and ended with murder.”

“I did everything I could to keep him happy when he showed up, because my little-kid head thought that if I was a pleasure to be around—if I smiled enough, if I kept the apartment clean, if I learned as much as I could—maybe he’d stay for longer.”

“I was right.
I hate that I was right.
She’s sleeping on the cold, hard ground without even a proper pillow or blanket. I drag myself upright and cross the room to the closet, throwing it open.
Empty.
Not a single article of clothing. This is a coastal winter, but it’s still winter. She must be freezing. She must be so uncomfortable.”

“I’m imagining how she must’ve removed the pin from the ruined jacket. How she must’ve washed it and placed it on the ground next to her head, like it was a small treasure to be displayed.
I feel like my chest is caving in.”

“My dreams about her are so small they’re terrifying. I could live off so little. I just want to turn on a light for her. I want to sit on a couch with her. I’d be thrilled to answer a question to her satisfaction.
No, smaller than that. So much smaller.
I just want to see her.”

“Rosabelle is pushing me away for a reason. She’s trying to protect me from something. I can feel it. I can fucking feel it: she’s putting herself in danger.

“You’ll be twenty-two.”
I take another shallow breath. “Yeah.”
“I was twenty years old when I asked Juliette to marry me.”
“I know.” I’m really struggling with these breaths.
“I’m sorry,” he says, holding my gaze. Another beat of silence. “For doubting you.”
This is a shock.
Warner isn’t known for apologizing.”
