“I find it’s easier not to single one out, to let their nagging individuality blur into the cacophony of the crowd.”  The spritely spring air ruffles his flaxen tendrils.
I sigh, so exhausted with this persistent cryptic demeanor of his.  “You talk about emotions as if you don’t have to feel them.”
He turns to me, aquarium eyes boring into my retinas.  “I  was merely simplifying things.  Besides, you’re the one who asked…”  Silence lapses between us.  
I stir my toes through the sandy gravel, listening to the crooning creek at my feet.  A Stellar Jay preens on the Dogwood tree beside me.  A horrid, raucous cawing spurts from his beak, so out of place in this lush, mossy Eden.
