What happened was private. I was in it with Rose. She had hurt me grievously and now I was forever attached. I was in it now with all the women in the world. I walked home glad. I will die, I thought with a bounce in my step. I’m whole. Not whole like anyone else, but whole like me. Painful, but simple. It was very simple now.
