Larry was aware that Molly used to be one too, but now she does that thing with her hair since Larry ain’t around no more. He was lying on the floor with a shoelace around his arm. His shoes were off and he looked off. He was staring at a jar or, more likely, staring at the heart of what he knew when he went too far.
Molly inherited his car.
“Oh,” she said. “Where did my man go?”
Since Molly couldn’t drive, that car sat still for years but it stayed alive, an obligation to her eyes. She said it was okay, but you could tell she was lying, you could see it in her eyes. But, she kept that car around anyway to commemorate that Larry ain’t around no more. He was lying on the floor with a shoelace around his arm. His shoes were off and he looked off. He was staring at the heart of his world and couldn’t get away.
“Oh,” she said. “Where did my man go?”
