nobody's second choice



- Better than when we were married.
- How about that?
- It isn't always there for us. Maybe that's why it's good.
- Yeah, well.. I mean.. we're older now.
- Older is better?
- More like smarter. You know. I mean, maybe if, maybe if we'd been what we are now back then things would have played out differently. Just something to think about.
- I guess. But now it is what it is, Vin.


- Hm. Why, you don't think we could, though?
- I think it's like we took what we had, and we dropped it on the floor, like it was some old teacup or something.
- Hm.
- And now, with the kids grown and the years gone, we could sit there on the floor with the glue and put it all back together again, every piece where it needs to go. And then, at the end, after all that work, you'd still see all the cracks and the missing pieces. You and Abby?
- Nah.


- Nobody wants to be anybody's second choice, Vin. That never works.
- Easier to just.. buy a new teacup?
- Yeah. Easier.
