Rodrigo Guedes de Carvalho - The Quiet House

"I want to believe you wouldn't have been home by the time I arrived, but I can't say. The truth is, I didn't look for you. Again. I think I did the usual things. Today, when I think about it, I think I did the usual things. I might have left the coat by chance. I opened the fridge, closed it, opened it again, without really knowing what I was looking for—it happens to me almost all the time. The usual things. I wandered around without really knowing. Someone will tidy up the fallen coat, you'll take care of that. I open the fridge, close it, open it again. I don't want much, I don't know what I want. I stopped drinking—I think I promised you—I don't know what I'll drink."
