They filled parts of the pool with concrete to lessen the water bill. I sat at a table across from you. You refused to play with the kids, you didn't want your hair. You refused to humor me with more than a small handful of words at a time. I congratulated your recent marriage and all you could conjure was a forced Thank you and a pair of dashing, darting eyes. Once they narrowed on your escape you left.
I could feel hurt, and I do.
and I feel bad because I asked you to care, and that is the hardest thing to do. But now, through similar experiences and reconciliation with the like, I have realized that empathy and compassion are great gifts.
And You are cold indifference. The worst kind of evil.
