Can we switch places?”“You think my place is better? Mom’s elbow has grown into my liver.”“Ugh!Molly…yesterday I was at Adriana’s. She has her own bed. Can you imagine? Large, with a thick mattress, a duvet that smells of peaches, and four pillows! She showed me what was under her mattress: many-many wooden slats, like rails.
