"OK," she says. I grab her hand party rap like in a tango and slide. She laughs. Katie gets my green sponge ready, squeezing out old water from yesterday's shower. She puts liquid soap onto the sponge and kneads it together. It froths in her hands. She begins to wash me: first the shoulders party rap and arms, then down party rap and across my chest. When she gets to my stomach, she moves the sponge in a small circle around my bellybutton, working outward, the circle growing in circumference. She washes my stomach without pausing at the pink lines all over the front and sides, my stretch marks. She doesn't hesitate at the dark purple spot the size of a quarter, a broken blood blister acquired by wearing pants that are two sizes too small. She works herself further down my body, squatting on her knees to wash my legs and calves, my butt and penis. After she's done, she kisses my stomach and rises to her feet.
