We held hands for the rest of the hour, not moving from the couch except for the time when I got her a wad of tissues to wipe her eyes.

When the taxi arrived, she said, “This isn’t over. Let’s see how it plays out.”

“Sure.”

I walked her to the door, stood on the terrace, and waved.

 

 

Three days later, I phoned Allison Gwynn’s office and told her about Larner.

She said, “Oh, my — it’s going to take me some time to integrate this… I’m glad you told me. It was good of you to tell me.”

“I thought I should.”

“Are
you
okay?”

“I’m fine.”

“If
you
ever need someone to talk to…”

“I’ll bear that in mind.”

“Do that,” she said. “I mean it.”
