A weathered wooden garden gate hanging off its hinges in a suburban back fence, held closed with a frayed rope, overgrown hedge on either side, damp autumn leaves on the ground, flat grey afternoon light, photographed from the path, plain and ordinary, no text, no people

She volunteered me to fix their gate. Came home to a text saying the Hendersons' gate's been hanging off since summer and I'd already offered. I have not offered anything. The photo is what's waiting for me tomorrow, held on with a bit of rope and optimism. I could do it, that's not the point. The point is I now can't say no without looking like a liar to people I've never discussed a gate with.

Do I just fix it and say nothing, or have the awkward conversation first? I know which one my wife prefers and it isn't the second one.
