When he picked up the scarf he realised
that she had left it behind deliberately. The
house keys were on the table, next to the scarf,
and the money that they’d argued about. She
had taken everything else, all her other
belongings, the clothes and shoes and jewellery
and music, the personal things, things
that he would not use himself. She had taken
her perfume, too, though the scent of her
lingered, on the scarf,
which she had left
deliberately.
The only other thing that she
had left behind
was him.
