Kamila Shamsie Quotes

Sitting On The Divan, She Touched A Finger To The Bullet Wound In His Chest. It Seemed So Small, So Incapable Of Creating The Exodus Of Blood Which Had Drenched His Clothes And Skin As He Lay In The Hospital, Waiting For Her To Claim Him. Death Has Been Instantaneous, They Said, As If There Were A Relief In That. She Did Not Want Death To Have Been Instantaneous; She Wanted To Have At Least Held His Hand As He Lay Dying And Said Goodbye To Him In Terms Other Than The, 'Why Are You Doing Again? You'll Find Nothing. Stay. Oh All Right, Go,' That Had Been Her Farewell To Him That Morning.

Stay. Stay. Stay. She Should Have Repeated It Like A Madwoman, Banged Her Head Against The Wall In A Frenzy, Hit Him And Wept. She Should Have Said It Just One More Time, Just A Little More Forcefully. She Should Have Taken His Dear, Sweet Head In Her Hands And Kissed His Eyes And Forehead. Stay.
