The people closest to him went first.
His brother stopped coming around.
I noticed because the brother used to park his truck in front of my place every Sunday.
And then one week.
The truck just wasn't there anymore.
And it never was again.
The card games got quieter.
Fewer cars than the drive.
And the friends who did still come, I'd see them out in the yard, and something was wrong with them.
Something you'd catch from across the street before you could put a name to it.
A half second slow to laugh.
Eyes go into Terrence first.
Before they'd land on anything else, checking him, the way a dog checks your hand before it decides to trust you.
He'd worn them down smooth.
Every time he reached in to win a stupid argument or smooth a night over the way he wanted it.
He took a little more of the grain out of them.
And they got easy.
They got agreeable.
They said yes to him the way water says yes to a hill.
And here's what I can't shake.
