“But why?”

Silence.

“Birdie?”

“Wait. I’m thinking.” She laughs, in spite of herself.

Ethel rearranges herself on the chair, centers her purse on her lap. “I have a lovely guest room.”

“So does my daughter.”

“Well, but . . .” Ethel taps her heel rapidly against the linoleum floor. What to say? I can imagine how you feel. No.

Too trite. You’re going to die, so why not be with your bestfriend instead of a daughter who, no matter how much sheloves you, has no time for you? No. Too blunt and, in a way, too mean. What she wants to say is something she is having trouble articulating even to herself.
