Abstract

Four years into our marriage, Elliot set a plate of mango-shrimp salad on the dinner table.

I stared at the dish for a long beat before reminding him, my voice barely a whisper, that I was allergic to shellfish.

The fork in his hand froze mid-air. He looked at me, genuinely puzzled, and asked if I wasn’t the one with the mango allergy.

In that moment, a cold clarity settled over me. I had never been allergic to mangoes.

In the upper-right corner of our refrigerator door, there was a sticky note he’d written four years ago.
