Profile
She slid the iPad across the counter so fast he had to catch it.
“What’s the matter?” An all-too-familiar Facebook profile glowed up.
“Who is she?”
Before he could speak, she repeated “WHO IS SHE?” That manic edge that, he knew, no meds could dull.
“Honey, please. Please.”
Her eyes flared, teeth gnashed. Once upon a time, he’d loved her wildness. Her craziness.
“Why are you SMILING? ARE YOU LAUGHING!” She slid backwards down the wall. “Why? Why? Why?”
He took the iPad and slid down next to her.
“Honey, look.” His fingers enlarged the image. “It you. It’s you.”
