I was met with silence, but I could feel Danuwoa still there, waiting. I had to do something to get him to talk to me. This couldn’t be it. I had made many dumb decisions in the last couple of months, but what I did next might take the cake. I started singing Peter Gabriel’s “In Your Eyes” like in the movie Say Anything. I had no boom box, but I had a man who loved Peter Gabriel on the other side of the door, and I had to get him to talk to me.
