The main valve’s in the utility room off the garage. Should be marked. Plumber’s number is probably on the fridge, or dining table I can't really remember but it should be one of both.” "Okay" "Thank you baby" She hung up.

Good morning.” “Good morning,” I said, trying to sound human and not like I was ready to crawl into the void. “Uh, the water’s not running again.” “Ah, yes,” he voiced, way too cheerily. “They’ve started working on it already. Pipe issue. It’ll be up soon. You know how it is.” Yeah. Unfortunately, I did know how it was.

Victor worked Under the sink while I stood in my own kitchen, a married woman, alone, damp not from water but from the low sound of the plumber's voice and the strip of skin that showed above his belt.
