“Oh, stop, Cami,” her friend giggled. “You’ll make her cry.”
The old woman hesitated for half a second before bending again. Her shoulders tight and drawn inward. That brief pause — that single, fragile moment of humiliation — made my chest ache.
“Are you hearing this?” I whispered, leaning closer to my husband.
“Oh, I’m hearing it,” he said, his jaw tight.

“She’s shaking, David,” I said quietly. “They think that this is funny!”
David didn’t answer. He was watching them, the muscle in his cheek flexing. I could tell what was coming before it even happened.
A sharp scrape cut through the laughter as David’s chair pushed back. The sound was louder than it should have been. Every head in the restaurant turned toward us.
