Pretense
| We drank wine in the summer of our affair, an expensive peachy chardonnay, out of mismatched glasses from a second-hand store. It was just like us, pretending to be "people- who-drink-wine-in-the-evening," watching sunsets from my new apartment's cracking balcony. We avoided truth, pretending many things: that we could afford to be so leisurely, that I was happy with my job, with this town, that you could be happy at all, here with me. But on nights we shared wine, we pretended we could afford to laugh at the world together the sound bouncing off the walls of the alley. |
