The Empty Bed
You can say no.
Paige
I read it four times and then I did the thing I had spent a year learning to do, which was not decide.
I forwarded it to Lia. I wrote one line: This came today. It’s yours. I have no opinion and I’ll say so if you ask me to have one.
She came downstairs about forty minutes later and said, “Did you write back?”
“No.”
