	Bucky? I do n- Oh... it is the stupid box playing tricks on me, of course. I am well. But I miss my Sven. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	right. I- did that make it worse? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[another sigh] A little. But I would not want to change what happened. The door was perfect. But all doors must close and I knew that when I went through. [She suddenly sounds brighter] How are you, Bucky? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He's quieter, has forgotten other peoplecan hear] I saw Steve once. After. I don't think it helped. [He tries to lighten too, isn't quite as good at it] I'm okay. It's loud around here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She pauses for a moment before speaking again] I have some bread, made this morning, and there's butter, and ham from the other day. Would you like to come and have some and then there will not be a box between us? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If you don't mind sharing (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Of course I don't mind. I will always share with you, Bucky. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Is it absolutely wrong of me to be proud that it is my daughter to bring him out of his shell? [She is careful not to use names so not to seem rude.] Are you alright? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	[Mam, I... I don't... I will be. But not right now. Right now I am being foolish.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[she's hesitant to speak, which is very unlike her][I want Sven to be here. I miss him all the time and I can deal with it because I am used to being at home while he is away over the summers. So this should be no different.] [another pause] [...but we are having another child, Mam, and he will not be here, or even know about it... So I am being foolish.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[There is a little sadness in her voice.][It is not foolish to miss him, especially with something so momentous. I still miss your father, and I have been without him for many winters. No matter who warms my bed, no one will fill that hole that he left. So I say without prejudice, that you are not foolish for missing Sven.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[I feel foolish, though.] [She sounds brighter again, like when she was talking to Bucky][But there is nothing I can do about it, and a baby is always good news.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Well, I don't know if knowing no one else thinks you are is helpful, but I hope it is. At least a little bit.] [There is a clear smile in her voice.][That they are. Especially if they are yours.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
