“Then this arrived.”
Mark reached for the grocery receipt and folded it once.
Claire took it from him before it could disappear beneath another paper.

Groceries were groceries.
A rent increase was a housing problem.
A promise about her office was something else.

My daughter filled three shopping carts, and when the cashier announced the total was 980 dollars, she ordered me in front of everyone, “Pay. It’s the least you can do for living with us.” I closed my wallet, said “No,” and walked away without arguing. She still didn’t know that later that night, I would stop paying for something far more important than groceries.
