Now they both elected to transfer to LA from Detroit.Kwit was looking for a quick hour or two with Sam at her office before he resumed his duties at t...e Fort, so I let him go with just a few words. He mentioned that Nia was a very good driver, she had been at the wheel for half the trip. I mentioned that he and Sam both had jobs for me, and I needed both of them where they belonged. Also, Sam was not to know the location of the Fort, next door to where Kwit lived. She did know where the Mansion. I arrived home just as the teachers were leaving. It looked to me that Dad had been sharing his single malt with them, judging by the empty glasses on the coffee table. They did a strange thing as I walked in. They turned towards me and applauded. I was stunned.“Er, thank you, I think,” I stammered, “what was that for?”“David,” Tom said, “I think that’s the best performance I’ve seen by a teenager in a film since, I don’t know when, you were absolutely convincing in that. I can’t wait to see. I was sick to my stomach. Where the hell was she? I did another lap around the club, searching each room. I looked at my watch again, I hadn’t seen Kate for almost 2 hours. I was almost going to give up when I found another door that was closed. I hesitated for a second, not sure if I should just walk in but decided that if it wasn’t Kate I would just apologise and walk out. I open the door slowly and looked in. Rick was lying back on the bed with Kate on top of him, bouncing up and down on. "They were, I don't know, interestin' people I guess. Like from a different world than the rest a'us. But they did gi' you these and that fine soap." And this kerchief. An' we had tea and talked a'silly things, dresses and lace and such." She sat up straight, bloused out the pink cloth around her neck and tucked it down between her breasts. "Haven't 'ad anything there since w'left London. Makes m'feel all ladylike, it does." She smiled and felt happier than she had for weeks."Y'look fine,".
