The Rules Of Love & Grammar (2016) - Plot & Excerpts
They discussed the topic on numerous occasions. The shower is hot. Very hot. I stand there, letting the water run over my head and down my body for a full minute before picking up the bar of organic soap Mom special orders from some place in Oregon. The smell of jasmine is an irritant, continuously released as the water soaks my hair and trickles down my skin. It’s a scent I’ll never want to wear. I place the tan bar of soap under my nose. It doesn’t smell like anything, which is fine by me. In fact, it’s perfect. After I’ve scrubbed off the jasmine, I lie on my bed for an hour and a half reading You and Your Bike, flipping through diagrams, learning about maintenance and tools and repairing common mechanical problems. That’s one thing about bikes—if you maintain them they won’t let you down. Unlike men. At least, unlike the kind who cheat on you for two weeks before letting you know they’ve moved on. Later, I head downstairs.
