‘Ought we to go?’ Mary asked, knowing this little interlude was over.

‘Yes.’

She could hear the reluctance in his response.

‘Why do you hate coming here?’ Mary asked as they faced each other in the water. Now she looked not at the stitches, nor at the bruises, just at him.

Costa didn’t quite know how to answer. Right now he did not hate being home. He could hear the grylos starting to chirp, and the sounds of laughter in the distance, could smell the scent of the ocean beyond.

‘Why did you kiss me like a mannequin on the ferry?’ she asked.

‘I don’t like performing for an audience,’ Costa said, and took her hand to help guide her out.

But it was Mary who moved in closer and kissed him—perhaps because she had to, perhaps because she had the safety of knowing a kiss was all it could be for now, for there were places this seemingly happy couple needed to be.
