My friend came to stay with me for a little while, after one of my roommates was accepted to a grad program on the opposite coast. It was nice to have her here, in the room I started to think of as hers. Then her sojourn took her back to her family's house, where she is cozy and happy with her parents and sisters, amid a forest of green trees outside and steam from tea inside. A week after she left I stood in her doorway with the light from the hall behind me and felt a little forlorn.
