I am not going to dress that up. A woman of sixty-nine had said yes to me, and I went into a break room at two in the morning and said it out loud to a girl of nineteen.
The break room, which took about four minutes and which I have gone over more than anything in my life.
Two in the morning on the twenty-second of April, which is a Tuesday into a Wednesday.
And it was not a slip. That is the thing I had to stop saying in the February.
Nev came in first and I did not tell him anything for about ten minutes. We talked about a rota.
And then Prue came in and sat down with her phone.
And I waited.
I know I waited because I remember thinking that it was better with two of them in the room.
And then I said: “Can I tell you something mad.”
