We are. But one of us is living out loud , and one of us is reacting. You get the big scenes. The promotions, the crises, the emotional monologues. I get the stage direction: Jordan nods. Jordan waits. Jordan makes tea.
I’m sorry. I mean that. I don’t see myself as the hero of anything. I see us as—two people, trying.
I don’t know. But maybe—we stop calling you “my significant other” and start calling you “Jordan.” And I shut up for twenty minutes. And you tell me what you actually want. Not for us. For you.
(quieter) Do you want me to apologize for having a lot going on?
