“Are you dying or having a martini?” I said.
“Right now I’m having a martini,” she said, “but later I may die.”
“Dying is sticky business. You are wise to settle for a martini, and I’ve decided that I would like to have one too.”
“With me?”
“Yes.”
“I’m not at all sure that I still want you.”
“Well, do you or don’t you?”
“I do.”
“In that case, I’ll be right over.”
I hung up again and got off the bed and went downstairs to my Chevvie. The Chevvie was old and tired, and sometimes it ran, and sometimes it didn’t. This time it did, and I drove to Jolly’s in it.
