Text

Start: Mealtime was much the same as it had always been � Father still talked a blue streak, Mother still mashed her food into a pink soup, � and I still spit everything out into my napkin.

[... � …]

End: “Don’t be ridiculous, dear,� he’d say. But she meant it and would lie there sobbing, “PLEASE . . . DO IT!� It was a ritual we went through every night.
