He
didn
t
know
wines
,
but
he
figured
that
for
twenty
bucks
it
ought
to
taste
good
.
He
bought
a
Californian
Cabernet
,
because
Shadow
had
once
seen
a
bumper
sticker
,
back
when
he
was
younger
and
people
still
had
bumper
stickers
on
their
cars
,
which
said
LIFE
IS
A
CABERNET
and
it
had
made
him
laugh
.
He
bought
a
plant
in
a
pot
as
a
gift
.
Green
leaves
,
no
flowers
.
Nothing
remotely
romantic
about
that
.
He
bought
a
carton
of
milk
,
which
he
would
never
drink
,
and
a
selection
of
fruit
,
which
he
would
never
eat
.

Then
he
drove
over
to
Mabel
s
and
bought
a
single
lunchtime
pasty
.
Mabel
s
face
lit
up
when
she
saw
him
.
"
Did
Hinzelmann
catch
up
with
you
?
"
"
I
didn
t
know
he
was
looking
for
me
.
"
"
Yup
.
Wants
to
take
you
ice
-
fishing
.
And
Chad
Mulligan
wanted
to
know
if
I
d
seen
you
around
.
His
cousin
s
here
from
out
of
state
.
She
s
a
widow
.
His
second
cousin
,
what
we
used
to
call
kissing
cousins
.
Such
a
sweetheart
.
You
ll
love
her
.
"
And
she
dropped
the
pasty
into
a
brown
paper
bag
,
twisted
the
top
of
the
bag
over
to
keep
the
pasty
warm
.
Shadow
drove
the
long
way
home
,
eating
one
-
handed
,
the
steaming
pasty
s
pastry
-
crumbs
tumbling
onto
his
jeans
and
onto
the
floor
of
the
4Runner
.
He
passed
the
library
on
the
south
shore
of
the
lake
.
It
was
a
black
and
white
town
in
the
ice
and
the
snow
.
Spring
seemed
unimaginably
far
away
:
the
klunker
would
always
sit
on
the
ice
,
with
the
ice
-
fishing
shelters
and
the
pickup
trucks
and
the
snowmobile
tracks
.

He
reached
his
apartment
,
parked
,
walked
up
the
drive
,
up
the
wooden
steps
to
his
apartment
.
The
goldfinches
and
nuthatches
on
the
bird
feeder
hardly
gave
him
a
glance
.
He
went
inside
.
He
watered
the
plant
,
wondered
whether
or
not
to
put
the
wine
into
the
refrigerator
.
There
was
a
lot
of
time
to
kill
until
six
.
Shadow
wished
he
could
comfortably
watch
television
once
more
.
He
wanted
to
be
entertained
,
not
to
have
to
think
,
just
to
sit
and
let
the
sounds
and
the
light
wash
over
him
.
Do
you
want
to
see
Lucy
s
tits
?
something
with
a
Lucy
voice
whispered
in
his
memory
,
and
he
shook
his
head
,
although
there
was
no
one
there
to
see
him
.
