I’m late in seeing this, but as someone who became a widow unexpectedly in my 40s, I just want to say I’m so sorry and if you ever want to reach out (to a total stranger who knows this loss), I’m here.

I’m so sorry for you. I know this pain, too, my partner died and it’s just incredibly hard.

Happy and sad all at once! Love this story, don’t want it to end

Love Love love this! Can’t wait to read the whole thing all over again

Man Puts Glass Of Water On Bedside Table In Case He Needs To Make Huge Mess In Middle Of Night ANN ARBOR, MI—Explaining that it’s just more convenient, local man Andrew Gomez told reporters Thursday that he’s gotten in the habit of placing a glass of water on his bedside table before he goes to sleep in case he needs to make a huge, sopping mess in the middle of the night. “Sometimes I’ll wake up at night, and it’s nice to be able to reach over and spill water all over my nightstand, comforter, and floor without having to get up,” said Gomez, noting that he usually places a brimming cupful of water next to his cell phone and unopened mail so that he can just awaken in a disoriented state and send the glass and its contents careening everywhere while fumbling for it in the dark. “Who wants to get out of bed and walk all the way to the kitchen to get a drink of water when they can spend half an hour in the middle of the night frantically drying off their possessions and picking up shards of broken glass? It’s definitely much easier this way.” Gomez added that, in the event he does not knock over the glass while reaching for it, there’s nothing quite like the taste of stale, room-temperature water.

The thought, the words, the feeling, “I’ve missed you too,” catch in Olivia’s throat, unable to move past the shroud she’s woven of necessity, of longing, of grief.
“Yeah,” she offers instead, swallowing the truth and huffing softly, annoyed with herself for giving him even that much.
