Were you thinking of speaking with Lady Macbeth tonight? She has a look about her, an air of impatience, and of having already left this place behind.

If this is what you sense, you would not be far wrong. But, as chance has it, you may have other things on your mind. If you two speak, it will not be with farewells in your heart, nor will you notice that her usual manner of dress is altered. No queen's garb here, nor ornate jewels, but fitted jeans, a button-down shirt, a ponytail, and lace-up shoes.

That will not cross your mind, not now or later. But if you should come across her, before she comes across him, she will not begrudge a little time more for you. It is, after all, part of their illusion.

mary anne bell, lady macbeth
