I could tell my mother was waiting for something, although she wasn’t going to come right out and ask for it. She wanted my father to say he liked the bowl. And I’m sure he knew she wanted him to say he liked the bowl. And she knew he knew she wanted him to say he liked the bowl, but for some reason - that I don’t think any of us understood - he wasn’t saying it.
