listen to the snores from the other side of the bed, then there is the cat , it wants to be let out, and the light outside the window is changing slowly to a daybreak grey, away from the dark orange of night. The light has been turned on in the kitchen by the son. He did not bother to close the door.
In the deserted kitchen, look at the mess. Start the coffee grinder, fill the coffee machine. It is all too much and it could be imagined that all would be well. It is not, though. Make a cup of coffee, a slice of bread. Return to the bedroom, the wife is up having let the cat in. The wife goes to bed and the cat falls asleep on the windowsill, it's favourite spot.
Read the news, get dressed. The man who will install the heating in hitherto unheated parts of the house had announced his arrival today.
Wait. He does not turn up.
Dizzyness now, there is no reason. Lie down on the couch for a moment. The moment turns into an hour.
