Ma felt responsible. She told us to put off masks. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say that," she said. "But we've been talking about it. We decided to stop." "Did you tell him?" "No, he didn't want to know." We left the house. "I'm sorry," she said aga…
We realized the dying orchid had an influence. But we didn't know how far, and we didn't know the reason. Drake gave her a knowing smile. "You are a remarkable woman. You truly are." "Thank you, sir," she said, her voice soft. "You are a remarkable ma…

They did "Fritz and Louise" and I went for some soft drinks. It was too early to sit down, but they went to the cigar counter and got a Cuban. How'd you like the man? He was all right. He was a real piece of work. Why do you say that? He told me that h…
Ma was in trouble because she picked flowers on private property. The court was told that ma had gone to the garden of a house in the suburbs to pick flowers for dad. Ma had a dispute with the owner of the property, who was a gardener, over the flowers…
Dad wanted to visit Tucho's Rheinsberg. I was the only one who was interested. In the taxi, he kept repeating that I would have to be a brave boy, since we would never know what the place was like. I said, "How do you know I won't just run away?" "No…
