Awkward Meeting

The scene where Trissy and Hanna meet for the first time, when Heron and Gordon leave them alone in Hanna’s kitchen, is so intense with unspoken voices. It reminded me of my first time alone with my sister-in-law, so much to say and no graceful way to even begin. Both women had things to say and no way to say them and yet they both emerged stronger from that first awkward meeting, at least I hope it reads that way.
