I can’t just take it.’‘ You can. I’m giving it to you.’ She affirms, glimpsing quickly up at me and then down to the floor, moving her foot once and then back again. Still her hand is offered to me, still flinching with the ring in her palm.‘ What do you want for it?’‘ Nothing.’ ‘You must want something.’ ‘I.. got what I wanted.’ She smiles, such a light, smooth movement of her lips, but it dies out so quickly, like a candle light being blown in the wind. ‘What’s that?’‘ I got to see you again, to give it to you.
