“Did you ever want to be part of someone’s world and then discover….?”
She stopped there and her pause just stayed in the air until I offered. “….that you didn’t.”
She stared out the window. Denny’s was pretty empty. I played with the eggs on my plate with a fork. Food sounded like a good idea before I sat down. Now….not so much.
“Kinda sucks.” She said.
“If you let it…..yes, it does.”
“When does that feeling go away?”
“When you realize that your world is not such a bad place.”
“Obvious. Simple.“ Still staring out the window. She was thinking or maybe just weighing options as memories flew by. "I’m not simple.”
“Maybe not.” I said.
She didn’t look at me and I ate in silence, in my world.
