Oh, pish. I don’t think Edda’s even clear that she’s through with Amos. She’s got a lot of – stuff to process, and it could take quite a while before she does.

Yes, her departure from Chickweed Lane was precipitous, and a bit inconsiderate of Amos’s feelings, but I think he’s resilient enough to survive it.

Anyway, I’m half expecting (albeit with absolutely no concrete information to go on) this new guy to turn out to be playing for the other team.

[sub]Fuckin’ _shit_…Amos is auditioning at _Julliard???_ With the _cello???_ Since when does he play cello? And this is all happening in _my home town?_ With the main action going on in New Hampshire, I figured Edda had gone to _Boston._[/sub]
