Did it again.

he heard it in her voice  as priests hear in confessionals

hurt

anguish

   she didnt have to say he knew

but between them they had a saying If you hadnt said I woudnt have known

they chose to be dropdead honest with each other

                                                    Brutal family members said of their relationship  chiding

they said to them

                   We choose not to be dishonest.

she was his girl

Again

resigned Yes.

Did she answer

   No. The message is The person you have called is unavailable.

                                                                       Then it disconnects.

Im sorry baby

Yah.  Me too.

               I don’t often make the mistake, but when I do I ride it out. I think, sometimes, it was a dream a bad dream. I’ve been in a terrible dream, she answers, I’ll wake up an it will finally be over.

he said nothing

there was nothing to say

she called for him to listen
