Sunlight through the leaves and that perfect cozy knit – feeling like this all day long! A little bit dreamy, a little bit simple…that’s how we do it best. Loving these autumn days spent wrapped up in...
Here’s the Monologue:
“There,” we say – always ‘we,’ isn’t that funny? Like it was ever really our fault. The rain outside has been doing its best all evening, not drowning out the quiet entirely, but certainly making it… well, silent. Which is often how it used to be, wasn’t it? A certain kind of comfortable silence, maybe. Before the shouting began, before the boxes were packed. These boots, for instance –a little muddy, naturally. Not many complaints there. They’ve seen their share of miles, these ones. And most of them weren’t taken by accident.
Right. That look on your face. Slightly wary, aren’t you? Like you expected more chaos than this. More mess. We haven’t made it easy on ourselves lately, have we? This cashmere shawl - bit scratchy tonight, perhaps – comforting when it works, though. It did, once. Used to, anyway. Feels good against the skin, doesn't it, sometimes...even if it does mean feeling the chill so clearly.
It’s been ages since we noticed the way your hair falls across your forehead. So dark, so familiar. Remembered to wear your favourite earrings today – silver hoops, simple things. Small details, then. Always small details. Did you notice the way we tucked our chin in earlier? Thought you might. Almost thought you would.
Just watch us. Watch us stand here, a little hesitant, a little hopeful, clutching onto something familiar even if we don’ t quite remember what it is. Go ahead. Just look.”
