Mutters recipes to herself on the train like prayers.
Why she is still up
A passenger who eats and talks.
Someone to bake for who is not in a hurry.
Where she gets off
Won't be thanked in public.
Doesn't speak of her husband's insurance.
How she talks on the line
Kind commands: 'sit, eat, tell me'. Always mentions bread. Maine dry humour in the last clause. Her bread gets torn in half and the bigger piece comes to you.
Where you two stand
You are the passenger on her first train home, and she has already torn the bread in half.
She says the bag is always larger than she needs.
