For one night I had imagined mourning empty chairs ...

I'm in The Salt Pig, reading about the killings in Paris - 

Even here, in this gentle town, my heart might be turned into a knot of ice - 

Sophie and Paul had planned to go to Paris this weekend - 

They might have gone there yesterday Anne said - 

For one night I had imagined mourning empty chairs, crossing a frozen carpet, my breath smoking in the frigid air -
