“What's that?” He was looking over changes in the script. The movie was going very well, and he already had offers for others in the spring. His rates had gone up of course, so Abe was pleased.
“I just found a stack of monogrammed towels I don't think you use, and since I'm a W again, I thought maybe we could send them to Marisol. We need towels desperately there.”
“I suspect that's why you married me,” he said as he grinned at her. “God forbid you should buy new towels for Marisol. Could I order you some as a wedding present?”
“Of course not. These are fine. Why buy new towels when old ones will do?”
“I love you, Valerie,” he said, as he smiled at her, and then got up and came across the room to her. He put his arms around her and forced her to put the towels down. “You can have all the towels you want. Maybe we can find you some old monogrammed sheets too. If not, we can pick some up at Goodwill.”
“Thank you, Coop,” she said, and kissed him. It had been a fine year indeed.
