Still smoking there is a cigarette lying in an ashtray. On the couch there is a man. It is not yet morning and outside it is still dark. The light has been left on.

There is a woman and she is naked and she sidles up next to him, resting her head on his shoulder. He is uncomfortable with the way she looks at him but he wants her to nonetheless. When he does not say anything she does not feel uncomfortable. He alone feels awkward.

He feels that his silences are bull****. He feels that if he properly expressed himself she would no longer look at him the way she does and that she won’t speak to him in the way that he thinks only she can.

He thinks that a relationship of this kind is not a relationship at all and the next morning he tells her that he no longer wants to see her. He misses her and she still wonders why he left.
