Becoming Ellen (2015)
“Temerity played the violin in the city’s symphony orchestra, and Rupert played the cello. Occasionally they got together for some extra rehearsal.
When Ellen came in, Rupert, a very large and shy man, stood up and offered his embarrassed hello to Ellen, fumbling even those few words. Ellen understood that the cellist was very private and not very social, traits she shared, to say the least, which was the reason she had been able to allow him to see and converse with her.
“Sorry,” Ellen ...said, “I didn’t mean to interrupt. I’m going to make something to eat.”
“What are you making?” Temerity asked, looking hopeful.
Completely unsure of either what she had or what she could make out of whatever it was, Ellen said, “I don’t know yet.” She opened the fridge and leaned in to see what was there. “But . . . it will definitely involve bacon.”
