Q: What would you consider is or was, probably, the worst thing that’s ever happened to you?

A: Elyssa.

Q: Why?

A: Does that sound cruel?

Q: A little angry, yes, and mean too, but mostly angry. Cruel’s a strong word and I don’t thing most people truly understand it as a real thing when they think of that word and place it on something. I don’t really believe most cruelty is intentionally cruel. But, I think you’re angry, and regardless, I can see you’re hurt.

A: I don’t know why I feel that way.

Q: Yes you do.

A: Yes, I do.

Q: Can we start again then, and I’ll ask you the same question?

A: Okay.

Q: What’s the worst thing that ever happened to you, or is happening to you?

A: I can’t answer that right now. I’m sure the true answer is simple enough to get it out, but I can’t even peg what that would be in the first place, let alone get it out. So, I can’t answer that one. I don’t know.

Q: Well, then what would you consider is, or was, probably, the best thing that’s ever happened to you?

A: Elyssa.
