There was a window in the room, down at the far end. The view was panoramic, looking down from the rocky aerie where the hospital sat. The city stretched into the distance, and below the river moved angrily in eddies and rapids through a narrow canyon it had carved into the heart of the stony land. On the far side, houses and office buildings crawled up the tangled slopes, their angles softened by autumn-colored trees.

Kevin began to live at that window as the weeks passed. Every time when I arrived, he would be standing there, hands behind his back, eyes fixed on some unseen point beyond the glass. That window became the thing around which our whole lives revolved. Kevin was able to stand there and talk to me without having to actually look at me. Often, he was able to stand without talking either. I was not much competition, I think, for the things he was looking at.
