Ангуа се замисли. Познаваше този синдром. Всички те твърдяха, че си търсят сродна душа и другар в живота, но рано или късно нещата опираха до кожа, гладка като коприна и гръдна обиколка, достойна за стадо крави.

On the dresser was a row of blue-and-white jars that weren't very useful for anything. They'd been left to her mother by an elderly aunt, and she was proud of them because they looked nice but were completely useless. There was little room on the farm for useless things that looked nice, so they were treasured.
