Next time I’ll wear black, I won’t be caught off guard.
They won’t see a smile on my face before they scare me and make me look like a fool who hasn’t been warned until the last minute.
I will be prepared.
I won’t have to change the date because I intend to schedule anything.
Thus, when they open their mouths to give me the news, I will already know the words and begin to heal the wound before seeing my torn skin.
