Now
We used to look at each other like that. Before you went and messed everything
up.
The man wraps a scarf around the smiling woman’s neck, then leans in and
kisses the tip of her nose. I force my eyes from the store window and keep
walking. Maybe another mile will do it—will clear my head so I can think
properly. Figure out what to do with the rest of my day. The rest of my life.
Another block, then two. I stop behind a dozen people at the crosswalk. A
woman checks the time on her phone, a child sways under the weight of his
backpack full of books, a businessman in a five-thousand-dollar suit spews into
his phone about some deal gone bad.

He’s angry. Probably needs therapy. Most of us do. Myself included.
Myself especially.
A teenage girl smokes a joint as she bops along to the buds in her ears. A
twentysomething wearing baggy jeans and a T-shirt pretends he’s not freezing
his ass off.

One thing stands out that makes them different from me—they all seem to
have somewhere to go.
Then again, I probably look like I do, too. I’m good at pretending these days,
aren’t I?

But soon they’ll be home with their families or their dog or their video game,
and I’ll still be out here walking. Searching for something, though I don’t know
what. I still have my wits enough to know that means I might never find it.
Maybe I should get a dog. That would at least give me a purpose for all this
walking. Of course, I’d have to feed it. Drag myself out of bed early every
morning to take it outside so it doesn’t ruin the carpets. Give it love and
affection.

I swallow a lump in my throat. I’m not capable of committing to any of those
things. Especially the last one.
The light changes, the wave of people surges forward, and I let it carry me
across the street. I turn a corner at random, and seconds later I’m among
brownstones. I slow my pace, and another walker brushes against me, hurrying.
Another person with a place to be.

A breeze ruffles through the leaves, and the yellow and orange colors of a
ginkgo tree rain down around me. We almost lived here in Gramercy Park, in
one of these very brownstones.

With a foyer painted in sky blue and an office
window facing the city. If we’d chosen this home, instead of the apartment,
would things have been different? Would that one choice have made ripples
through our lives, and you’d be standing next to me right now?
I let myself imagine it. It’s the sort of neighborhood where people raise
families.
