Lately, she had begun noticing the Poet’s preference for ‘I & E’ over ‘Y’. When it came to words like quality, penny, embassy, He would unfailingly replace the ‘Y’ at the end with ‘I-E-S’ to make these plurals. But only when a Vowel preceded a ‘Y’, like in key, delay, annoy, an ‘S’ would be added after ‘Y’ to make such words plural. This, to her, was a reconfirmation of her own paranoia and the power ‘I & E’ wielded over the hapless Poet.
