I went to Adam in de night. He weren’t sleep none, he wuz just layin’ dere, eyes open, like he been waitin’ for me. He say I smell real sweet. I... put some ‘o de missus toilet water straight from Paris France behind my ears. I let my frock fall to da floor and I stood dere, with nothin’ on but da light from da moon dat wuz lightin up da room, and showed myself to him. I could see da covers movin’ down below so I knowed he was happy to see me. I slid under da covers wif ‘im and he was warm to da. There was a karate place and a mailing place down near the other end.

There were 3 long aisles straight ahead with just movies and a man at the counter to my right. There were four customers down the aisles and all but one was staring me down. I almost paniced for a second, I couldn't even remember why. I'd made the trip out to the truck once before, and twice after my purchase."Where the Hell have you been for the last hour? Why is your ass never where you say it's going to be?" I'd had time to get thoroughly pissed. Same old arguement. Same song, different verse. "Why do I even ask, when I know you'll lie to me?" I saw the fabric section as I passed. I found a color combination that might work when we repaint the kitchen. Then I went looking to match paint samples. I lost track of the time,. Tsanja joined them that evening for dinner. Everyone could see that she was distracted, and was desperately trying to hang on to her usual reserve. She told them what she knew of the things that had gone wrong in Gynt, and how she could drive back the shadows over her memory for short periods, but it was not enough. Fortunately, Penn thought, Madeleine did not realise the main reason for her distraction.Mrs Beale asked them all to come and stay at her house."Come stay with us, Penn, Dee, you.
