property he gets to live in only about two or three
weeks a year. Some people collect houses the vay
people used to collect stamps."
"You mean some people you know, not people

There was a large living room with a big-screen
television set, and two bedrooms, one with a patio
overlooking the water.

kiss. He held me at the elbows and for a while we
stayed just like that, planted against each other,
listening to the surf and staring out at the starlight
dancing on the water.
