Okay
,
"
she
said
,
humoring
him
.
"
Then
don
t
tell
me
,
Mister
Mysterious
.
"
He
told
her
it
would
be
best
if
she
waited
in
the
car
in
the
Rock
City
parking
lot
while
he
made
his
delivery
.
He
drove
up
the
side
of
Lookout
Mountain
in
the
gusting
rain
,
never
breaking
thirty
miles
per
hour
,
with
his
headlights
burning
.
They
parked
at
the
back
of
the
parking
lot
.
He
turned
off
the
engine
.

"
Hey
.
Mack
.
Before
you
get
out
of
the
car
,
don
t
I
get
a
hug
?
"
asked
Laura
with
a
smile
.
"
You
surely
do
,
"
said
Mr
.
Town
,
and
he
put
his
arms
around
her
,
and
she
snuggled
close
to
him
while
the
rain
pattered
a
tattoo
on
the
roof
of
the
Ford
Explorer
.
He
could
smell
her
hair
.
There
was
a
faintly
unpleasant
scent
beneath
the
perfume
.
Travel
would
do
it
,
every
time
.
That
bath
,
he
decided
,
was
a
real
must
for
both
of
them
.
He
wondered
if
there
was
anyplace
in
Chattanooga
where
he
could
get
those
scented
bath
bombs
his
first
wife
had
loved
so
much
.
Laura
raised
her
head
against
his
,
and
her
hand
stroked
the
line
of
his
neck
,
absently
.
"
Mack
I
keep
thinking
.
You
must
really
want
to
know
what
happened
to
those
friends
of
yours
,
"
she
said
.
"
Woody
and
Stone
.
Do
you
?
"
"
Yeah
,
"
he
said
,
moving
his
lips
down
to
hers
,
for
their
first
kiss
.
"
Sure
I
do
.
"
So
she
showed
him

Shadow
walked
the
meadow
,
making
his
own
slow
circles
around
the
trunk
of
the
tree
,
gradually
widening
his
circle
.
Sometimes
he
would
stop
and
pick
something
up
:
a
flower
,
or
a
leaf
,
or
a
pebble
,
or
a
twig
,
or
a
blade
of
grass
.
He
would
examine
it
minutely
,
as
if
concentrating
entirely
on
the
twigness
of
the
twig
,
the
leafness
of
the
leaf
,
as
if
he
were
seeing
it
for
the
first
time
.
Easter
found
herself
reminded
of
the
gaze
of
a
baby
,
at
the
point
where
it
learns
to
focus
.
She
did
not
dare
to
talk
to
him
.
At
that
moment
,
it
would
have
been
sacrilegious
.
She
watched
him
,
exhausted
as
she
was
,
and
she
wondered
.
