Argument
I sit in sullen silence on the sofa, curled up, wondering at every rustle and stir from the bedroom if you are coming to find me, so like a child crouching behind a hedge in a game of hide and seek. A mosquito lands on my arm and then on my thigh. I smack at him repeatedly and in futility but refuse to move, to get under the net that surrounds our bed.
