Awake.
Where are you?
At home.
Still unaccustomed- awake or sleeping- to being in your own home.
This is just one more of the stupefactions of spending thirteen years in a prison.
Who's lying at your side?
Not loneliness, but your wife, in the peaceful sleep of an angel.
Pregnancy looks good on a woman.
What time is it?
Eight.
That means you're safe until evening.
Because it's the practice of police Never to raid homes in broad daylight.
