"Yeah, don't want ter feel like there's room on either side," I says, an' Hope's bright red. Feels good t'laugh.
Syl gives us a long look, and says she don't regret what she did. Think we'll leave it at that, askin' what 'appened.
"Wouldja wanna stay 'part ferever? If'n y'could?"
Think fer a long while.
"Dunno," I say at last. "It's... Dunno if it'd be lonely. Dunno if bein' apart permanent would change 'ow we talk to each other an' such. But.. Would make some things easier. People, even those we're friends with, they've always got t'get over their shock. Would be nice t'not always 'ave to wait fer that to pass, even if it only takes a minute. Tirin', it is," I say, an' I sound right tired an' all. "I ain't ashamed of what we are. But it ain't easy, neither."
