He who contradicts himself

She's wrapped in a towel after getting out of the shower. Not her towel, but one she grabbed at the top of the stack of towels in the laundry room. She had to take a shower real quick and just grabbed a towel and moved on. It's one of the regular sized towels, her sons. 

She gets out, towel wrapped around and he just stares at her. It's a stare to study the situation, soak it all in and compare. 

"What are ya lookin at?"

"Just you!"

"Me, why, what's wrong."

"Nothing, just not used to seeing you with a towel that wraps all the way around you."

"Thought you didn't remember me being that big?"

"I don't. It's just little things like this. I see you like this and I see pictures of you from a year ago and it's hard to put the two together." 

He is the guy who contradicts himself. And I love him for that.
