Who exactly did you mean? May 2012

  

`When the text came, I blinked twice and read it again.

It was a message to a man from her phone, but clearly meant for someone other than me.

I texted back, got not reply that night, then asked her about it the next day.

She gave me a text version of a shrug.

“It didn’t mean anything,” she said.

But nothing about her is accidental. When I pressed, she got annoyed. So, I stopped asking.
