“What’s wrong with you, Pooh?” The way Pooh left his mouth and soothed my soul shouldn’t have been real. Should not have existed. He came over toward me as I leaned against the store and held my chin as tears fell down my face. “I’m okay.” “Lie to me again.” “I will be okay.” “That I know. I’m not worried about the future right now. I wanna know why you’re not okay right now.”
