Connie.What was to be done with her?She was coming home from Sag Harbor late in the afternoon.When Paula finally got up and came into the living room,Angela sent her to the shower and it was almost a new person that emerged.Paula asked about Connie.She had three or four calls from her while she slept and she did not know what to say.In the end,they agreed that she should tell Connieat her place in Bay Ridge but say nothing out of the ordinary until then.

It was cold.Paula and Angela could not sit outside her building.They found a coffee shop where they could watch.When Connie got out of her brother’s SUV and entered the building,they got up.At the building,Paula hit her buzzer.

“Con.It’s me.We need to talk.”
