Tell Me (2014)
““Now,” Burke says, “it really gets crazy.”
It wasn’t crazy before?
My glue gun isn’t working, and the blue carnations on the middle school jazz float keep falling off the giant musical note that is above the little stage where Ben and the band will be playing. Burke comes over with a brush and some glue. He shows me how to brush on the glue and then push a flower into it to make a pattern, one flower at a time.
“Brush and push over and over. You got it?” he asks.
“I’ve got it.” ...I’ve been trying to figure out a way to bring up the subject of Taylor to see how he responds. Burke is fully float-focused, and it’s hard to say, “So, I need more glue and blue carnations, and, by the way, that reminds me of Taylor.”
Taylor is across the room working on the library bookworm. I can’t see her, but I think Burke is looking over in her general direction, or maybe I’m making the whole thing up.MoreLess
