Fred began to notice something a month after the lockdown. Her eyebrows had grown bushy and there were hairs above her upper lip. He had not known how important her trips to the beauty parlor were. Fred had never seen this hidden depth of hers in the 12 years of their marriage. After he saw the steady growth of hair on her chin, he confined himself to his study except when he had to eat. A week later, he caught her peeping into his study with apprehension, “Fred, I never knew you had grey hair all over your head.”
