In conversations with him, she doesn’t seem to be the author of the things that she says.

She doesn’t recognize herself.

At these times, she is as much of an observer of herself as he is.

She surprises herself with this knowing, but moreover, intrigued by all of what happens between them.

She is what he allows her to be.

He is charming and handsome.

He is proud and confident.

For the experience he wants to have, she is the source.

He doesn’t know her.
