Things weren't going well between him and Suzy for a long time, but he denied it. He turned every negative thing that happened within the shaky confines of their home into a positive. He learned this from his mother, a perfect example of a 1950s wife. She deftly brushed off every argument or disagreement, changing the subject or forgetting about it the next day. She believed this was the only way to avoid escalation and keep the marriage together.

My existence amid the heat felt both trivial and distant. I'd accepted my insignificance, that I was just a tiny drop in the vast machine of the world. Who was I to question any of it?
