She said: Claire.
She said: can I come to your studio?
She said: when I visit my sister in Portland?
I said: yes.
I said: come whenever.
I gave her a card.
She looked at the card.
She said: Weston Wellness.
She said: that’s you.
I said: that’s me.
She put the card
in her bag.
She said: thank you for coming tonight.
She said: I think a lot of people needed to see you.
I said: I needed to see them too.
She said: yes?
I said: yes.
I said: I needed to see who everyone became.
I said: and I needed to know that the hallway wasn’t still happening.
She said: was it?
I said: only a little.
She said: yes.
She said: only a little.
She said: that’s probably the most you can hope for.
She said: people are people.
I said: yes.
