The reunion

Amrita spins a wonderful tale. A long read, but worth the time … most daughters would identify !

‘Maybe’ was a game we had invented as children to save us from trouble as children. You know: I didn’t eat those chocolates you told me specifically not to eat – maybe the Shoemaker’s elves relocated to our kitchen and now steal our food. That sort of thing. As the years drew on, the scenarios had turned a bit more macabre and violent than before. It completely put my husband off sometimes. I told him I didn’t understand why, as the only person I played it with was my sister.
