Context

Text

I wanted to see The King and I with you tonight because I know you can’t go to the theater without wanting to talk about it afterwards. And I would be the only one there, so you’d have to talk to me. And when we got home, you’d want to sit on the couch and read what Brantley had to say, and I would sit down next to you and complain that my belly hurt and ask you to rub it for me. And I think you would have... even if it was just to get me to shut up. And then you would notice how it felt a little hard. And you would ask me if I was doing sit ups, and I would laugh, because I never... and then I would tell you that I went to see Dr. Fein. And you would realize. And you would smile again.
