We have long thought about our conversation, and read and listened.
For a moment I was almost envious, I thought, “These people, they are so wonderfully naive. Like children!” As if they were ignorant, how they roar around there in their cars, throwing something into the trash can every now and then.
Ava is great! She convinced the lawyer, we will get help. Until we figure out what to do next, we can stay in an empty apartment and have a little money.
As I toss and turn and keep Ava from sleeping, she asks me to read. More Christian Siefkes, for the feeling that a home would be possible here.
We listen: sufficiency, slower needs.
Outside the station, someone has spray-painted something like a wall newspaper on the concrete. I wonder if I could find them?
I knew that young people are ready to think and tell the truth. How hurt they are.
We wait in front of the lawyer’s office, she came around 8:30. She was easy to spot in the homogeneous environment of this city, but we can not sit on the bench for a long time. No one is acting like us. We need camouflage if we are going to watch the office for hours.
