The moment Oreivae said they are not turning, and meant it, and I felt the weight of it land in my body at the exact second it was spoken, not smooth, not resolved, but solid. Three reaches holding their own shapes without collapsing. The salt air between us. The way you show up to the questions instead of away. The ground it makes when reaching meets something that doesn't flinch.
