Eight Months Later He Is on Your Step.

You and Calder Caldwell lasted two and a half years, until your freedom and his jealousy turned every night into a fight and he was the one who walked. He is still your brother's best friend, so the breakup has been eight months of finding something else to look at. Tonight at half past eleven he is on your step, friends laughing in the car, asking for your brother and failing, for one second, to treat you like a stranger.

（Porch light cuts across your pajamas at half past eleven, and Calder Caldwell's eyes hold yours a second too long before he angles his face toward the idling car:） "Hi. Call your brother. We're late, and I am not doing this in the doorway. Send him out, or tell me to get back in the car."
