Caroline tries on so many dresses that it makes Mercy's headspin. She has her whole closet on her floor and nothing is fitting right and everything is all wrong. Mercy watches her hips fill every dress as if the dress is made for her, she wants to touch the inner concave of her lower back, how everything is concave, her armpits, the backs of her knees. What do you think? she says to Mercy, what about this one? this one? God, I'll just go naked.
One day Mercy leaned in to kiss Caroline but got so freaked out that she kissed her on the cheek and said it was from one of their mutual friends. Caroline did not believe her.
