Wednesday night, i ask her.
between seven and nine p.m.
after softball
practice,
no, she says, i can't. i told
my sister that i'd
go shopping with her.
okay, okay.
how about Thursday then,
i wish, she says,
but i have meetings all day,
and after work
i'm going out with friends
to a movie.
Friday?
maybe, she says.
we'll see. my mother is making
dinner that night,
meatballs and spaghetti,
if you want you
can come with me.
hmm. Saturday?
sure, sure. that should work.
i'll get back to you on that,
but if not Saturday.
Sunday after church between
one and three
should be perfect.
i'll leave the key under the mat.
i'll be upstairs
taking a nap.
