Description

Roger had taken out the trash and become fixated on the house. It was a pretty postcard, a cottage from a fairy tale. Annie had edged their cape with strings of green and gold lights, its windows, two on each side of the front door, with plastic candles, the sheers suffused with a gauzy glow. She had a knack for decor, but recently he had noticed more precision in her execution.
