The Move

The first Sunday of March, Nui's cousin's pickup in the lane and too many plants: so many plants, Bee's? if we'd known, we'd have brought the big truck; the wardrobe doesn't go up the stairs; if we'd measured first, we'd have known; if we'd taken the doors off, it would have gone up; if they'd come at eight, we'd have finished by now; if you'd said seven, they'd have come at eight; if I'd said six, I'd still have been asleep: would have, the unreal if in the past.
