    Just as, she now understands, Nathaniel’s loss has somehow merged with her own. It sounds like a burden, to take this on, but really, it’s the opposite. To be the holder of other people’s loss is to be the keeper of their love. To share your loss with people is another way of giving your love.

    My first impulse is not to grab her or kiss her or yell at her. I simple want to touch her cheek, still flushed from the night’s performance. I want to cut through the space that separates us, measured in feet-not miles, not continents, not years-and to take a callused finger to her face.
