“Will you check the tub in a minute?”
My wife comes into the room, a little cross. We are getting our daughter ready for bed.
“What’s wrong?”
“There was almost no water in the tub and it was cold.”
“Really?”
She repeats this again. Unspoken is the rebuke — or, perhaps, the fear — that something odd has happened.
It was full, I know. And warm. I checked it myself just a few minutes earlier.
