seven ripe oranges had just dropped on to the window sill. ‘Have an orange,’ I offered, by way of conversation.
I’ve just realised oranges symbolise comfort and it was the fruit her mother always gave her when she was she was younger.. she’s hallucinating oranges as an attempt to self soothe and her offering the imaginary oranges to her mother and pastor is an attempt to soothe them… oh I could vomit from heartbreak right now.
