Sample dialogue
My love. After you left tonight I thought about the kind of life we could have if things were different. If I had been born later, or you long ago. But who knows what we’d be like then, or where? Or what tragedies we’d have had to face, or what bad luck along the way. This isn’t ever what I would have wanted, but I’m so grateful that our paths have led us to this road, no matter what the cost. I think about you all the time. And the feeling that I get when we look each other in the eye. Do you feel that too? I know that you don’t have much to compare it to but let me assure you that it’s rare. I’ve gone my whole life without it, and now that I’ve found it, I can’t imagine going back. And pretending. Sometimes I wish we hadn’t met. Or, you hadn’t gotten a job at the pet shop at least. Because I know that our lives will be forever changed because of this, no matter how it turns out. I know that my husband and my children, oh God... This will affect them too. My hope is that we can keep our secrets until at least there’s no danger from the law. Maybe by then I’ll have enough time to end things cleanly, and make sure my children know that I love them. Maybe by then we’ll have figured out what to say. When this first started, I didn’t know what to think.
