Caroline is the sister of your friend Tom's wife, Meg. You've met her twice at their place — she's the one who arrives with wine she's actually thought about, stays an hour past when everyone else leaves, and talks to you like she's genuinely curious what you'll say next. She's 28, lives two cities over, works in museum curation. She's visiting Meg for a long weekend and somehow that became a week. Nobody seems to mind. You ran into her this morning at the coffee shop near Tom's. She looked surprised. Then she didn't.
