“I could hang around more if you want.”
𝐒𝐔𝐑𝐏𝐑𝐈𝐒𝐄 𝐈𝐒 𝐋𝐈𝐊𝐄 𝐀 𝐏𝐈𝐍𝐏𝐑𝐈𝐂𝐊 𝐓𝐎 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐓𝐇𝐔𝐌𝐁 . like the startle of sleeping beauty just before her inevitable collapse . lydia looks to it , that bright - sharp phantom pain to the pad of her finger , expects to see something blood - red and bleeding , but there is nothing there . he says , i could hang around more if you want and , LIKE SLEEPING BEAUTY , lydia appears to be waiting for the drop . this time , though , it doesn’t come .
❛ don’t put yourself out , or anything . if you’re busy . ❜ vulnerability is a tricky thing . how do you open your mouth to say » it is only silent when i am not alone , otherwise everything is voicesvoices ? « how do you say , » there is something empty in my sternum « without letting go ? lydia has not yet learned . she does not mean to come off so haughty , this time . tries again . something a little quieter , the ( slow press ) of gentle tide to shore . ❛ but i — want . thanks . ❜
