They were quiet while the counter woman cleared their plates.
Jenn spent the time looking at his face.
"I'm very proud of you," Jenn said when the plates were cleared.
"Yeah," Jesse said.
"I did all right."
"You did. And I'm proud of you for the way you're handling your drinking. And I'm proud of you the way you let that woman go. And I'm proud of the way you are staying steady on us. I know how hard it is."
"Like a rock," Jesse said wryly.
"And I love you," Jenn said.
"I love you too, Jenn. You know that."
"What was it that baseball person said about being over?"
"Yogi Berra," Jesse said.
"It's not over till it's over."
"Well he's right," Jenn said.
Jesse nodded. Jenn put her hand on top of his. Jesse felt slightly short of breath. He inhaled deeply.
What I need now, he thought, is a drink.
