Re: Call: Misha B/Damian W
Do you reckon I should do it again? [But, he knows what would have an effect, and maybe he's trying to prove something 'bout himself in all this.] Or, this? [It ain't hope this time. It's absence. An absence of feeling washes over the other boy. No fretting, no concern, no worrying, but there ain't anything real good, neither. No happiness, no elation, nothing like looking forward to apartments or going to clubs or seeing the dog. It's numb. It ain't a bad numb. It's just numb. It comes and goes, ebbs and flows natural and slow, so the return of feelings comes in real small increments. As a result, it's tailored to the boy on the phone, and could be it takes a while. And it's real clear Misha's pacing on the other end of that phone line now.]
