My roommate in high school used to wake up in the middle of the night, thirsty. Like clockwork, she’d rise before the sun did and reach for the bottle by her bedside. I’d stir because I was a light sleeper, but after a while, my body got used to waking up when she did. She’d finish the bottle in one breath and sigh deeply, satisfied. I’d try to contain myself, but we’d lock eyes, and our bellies would synchronize in laughter. We’d go back to sleep,
We don’t talk anymore, but last night, I woke up before the sun did and gulped an entire bottle of water. Afterward, I laughed until my belly shook. I didn’t understand why.
Our bodies never forget people. I understand why they say “I broke into a million pieces when they left me”. There’s something shattering about endings. You can pick up the pieces to build yourself back together. But you can never remove the fingerprints of everyone that stopped by and felt you or shared a moment with you
