Sensuous

18 March — Thursday

“Bill? This is Jennifer.”

“Hello.”

“Hello. I just felt like calling.”

“Well, how’s everything?”

“Uh, fine.”

“Glad to hear it.”

“Is there someone there? That you can’t talk?”

“No, I’m alone.”

“You sounded different,”

“You sound different yourself. Is something the matter?”

“I don’t know.”

“Huh?”

“I thought, oh, that maybe I would come over tonight. If you weren’t busy.”

“I don’t know if that would be a good idea.”

“Oh.”

“Today is what? Thursday? We’ll be seeing each other Saturday.”

“I just thought, oh, it’s not important.”

“Is something wrong, Jennifer?”

“No, nothing’s wrong.”

“Then I’ll see you Saturday.”

“Maybe I’ll be busy.”

“I hope not. I’ll look forward to it. Look, I’ll explain some things Saturday.”

“What do you mean?”

“Saturday, okay?”

“I guess so.”
