“What are you talking about?”
“Artistry,” I shrugged. “Or, maybe books I’ve never read.” She stared. Flummoxed. “Really, living a good life,” I said and sat next to her. “Now, that’s what I’m talking about!”
“Sometimes you worry me,” she said, returning to her magazine.
“It’s nice to have someone on this earth worry about you,” I said. “That makes me a very rich man, indeed.”
