The
lines
on
his
face
softened
a
little
as
he
watched
her
talk
,
and
sway
,
and
gesture
,
Each
wave
of
her
hand
wiping
away
his
frustration
...
His
mouth
hung
open
slightly
as
though
he
considered
taking
a
bite
of
her
...
With
a
final
nod,
as
she
turned
to
walk
away
,
you
could
see
him
stiffen,
as
if
he
might
follow
after
her
...
Upon
him
,
the
woman
gone
,
he
bore
the
weight
of
the
world
again
.
