At the Saturday flea market Harry bought a coffee and doughnut from an elderly Native woman who looked at him from behind broken eyeglasses. Between her rotten teeth rested a home-rolled cigarette. He ate and drank slowly and then made his way back to the controlled crossing at the highway with a small paper bag of other purchases. He crossed nimbly enough and slowly climbed the gentle wheelchair ramp to his apartment, swung his arm down to the aluminum bar and entered. His wife was waiting for him in the kitchen of their suite.
“Your sister called about twenty minutes after you went to bed last night . . . said she’d call again later.” He hadn’t thought of or heard from Elaine in months.
