What time was I kissing Kai Henderson and what time, in that time, did my mother’s brain betray her, and me? A brain aneurysm. Sub-something, the doctor had said, but I couldn’t really hear, because my heart was exploding. The doctor had used words like rupture and instantaneous. My legs feel like cement, walking to the chairs. Will I always feel this way when I walk from now on, like something heavy?
