Charlie

Sam said to me that I need to talk to Charlie more. 

"Talk more?" I said. "Talk at all."

"Exactly, said Sam. "Talk to him. You don't speak to him."

"It is really hard when he..."

"Just try," said Sam.

Yes, well, I thought. It is true. I haven't been engaging him. So, this morning I said, "Good morning Charlie," as he wafted passed like the embodiment of silence, and he smiled and said good morning. And then he even asked me a question. And it felt like progress of sorts.
