You do not like Mardis Gras, Daniel?

[Wren M]

I hope you did not have a hangover for St Valentine, Wren! Lin - do you know Lin? - he told me of a place with such good food, I had one but it went. Your friends, your Luke, they are nice people, I think.

I didn't have a hangover, and I don't know anyone named Lin. But thank you, Luke and Jack are nice. I'm glad you had a chance to meet them. Maybe you can come for dinner one night, when it's quiet and we can all actually hear each other talk?

[oblivious to name changes]

I think perhaps you drank less than the rest of us. Your friend, he had the spirit of Mardis Gras, I think. I was glad of meeting both of them - Luke seems very kind. I would like that, dinner would be fun!

Maybe. I promise to have at least two glasses of wine when you come for dinner. I'll make Jack cook. He's pretty good at it with help.

At least. If not more, I know a place with very good wine, I will bring some. Your friend cooks? I thought in America, it was the women who were more the cooks - in Italy and in France, it is the men who do it very well but I thought America it was - barbeque?

Jack's home more than we are. He gets kitchen duty a lot.

Is it so very unusual an arrangement?

Not really. He and Luke were roommates, and I moved in with them, so I think Jack was in charge of the cooking before I ever came along. And I'm only good at cooking things that take hours, which isn't very practical with a little hungry person in the house.

It is like some of the families I saw, in India - where the mothers and fathers, their family who are unmarried live with them and help. But I didn't think it happened over here so much. But your things, what is it you cook? I cannot cook at all, although I wish I could. I forget, and things burn.

I [...] Maybe Luke would say Jack is like that. I don't really know. My family was just my maman, and she was just a girl. We weren't really traditional. But she loved to make soup, and she taught me, so I do that. It probably drives Luke and Jack crazy, but I haven't asked.

I don't ever forget. We're really different.

My mother was so long ago I do not remember. I had grandparents and I suppose they were family. I like the families I find, the ones we choose to keep. Why would making soup drive your boys crazy?

We are different, but I think it is a good thing. I do not know that I would like another of myself.

You aren't old. You make yourself sound so old. My boys That makes it sound like The house always smells like spices, and I'm always telling the cat and dog to get away from the stove.

I like you. I don't understand you sometimes, and I don't think you understand me, but I like you.

I'm not old. I'm not thirty. When I am thirty, perhaps, I will want a house and people and a place that is mine but I am not thirty and I don't want any of those things.

I think a house that smells of spices is a wonderful thing to have. You have animals? I wanted animals once - your little boy, I think he will grow up wanting family and people and places.

I don't think I can understand you because I am not you, I do not live with your eyes on life. And I don't think you can understand me either. But I do not think understanding is necessary for enjoyment. We do not always understand art, not truly, but we know if we like it.

I'm twenty-four. I don't think it has anything to do with age, really. And there's nothing wrong with not wanting those things when you're thirty, or forty, or fifty.

[...] You don't want animals anymore?

Okay. Yes. That's a really good way to describe it.

Have you always wanted them, the house and the children and the boy and the animals? I don't remember when I wanted things. I did, I think when I was very small. Maybe one day I will again.

I love animals. But if I were to have a cat or a dog or even a parrot (I think I would like one of these) then moving so much would upset them or they would have to be left behind. And I don't think I could bear that. You can't love and leave something that cannot understand why you have gone.

We are not art, we are people, so we are more complicated to understand. The intent that made us is not so simple as one artist. But I like you very much, Wren. I would offer to hold a dinner myself but I cannot cook and I have no dining table.

No, never. Only with Luke, and I never really wanted or believed it. I mean, not that I didn't want it, but I didn't expect it.

That's really sad I dragged my cat everywhere for five years. [...] Why don't you have a dining table?

This expecting. I don't think we ever get what we expect to get, far less what we want to have.

Your cat, did he mind being dragged? I go to places without homes, so I do not think perhaps, it is the same.

I don't have a dining table because the place did not come with one.

He was mostly on the streets when I don't know if he minded. Maybe, I guess. He's cranky, so it's hard to tell.

[...] Do you want to go shopping for one?

Aren't all cats cranky?

Why would I want a dining table? When I leave I will need to be rid of it.

I think maybe some aren't. There were some sweet ones that came around when I was little.

Maybe you won't leave this time.

So you like them but they like you. That's good. It's hard to love something that doesn't want to love you.

I always leave. [as if fact] There'll be a dig or a place to go and I'll wish I could stay but I'll go.
