Nicholas Garland<br >I ll call back later."<br >She won t have much time before going on the air<br >I you be at your office at six?"<br >BUY BACK THE DAWN<br > Jesus! The inquisition conducted by a twerp. "Tell<br >her I ll call back at six."<br > He wondered where Cathy was. He guessed in a<br >meeting. Why was it that whenever he telephoned a<br >woman he loved and got no answer he felt an immediate<br >twinge of anxiety. What fantasy was set off?. Could<br >Cathy ever be unfaithful? The way he knew he could<br >be?<br > Beautiful women always distracted him. His enthu-<br >siasm for them was as eloquent as it was boyish. He was<br >not a philanderer; he was just, on occasion, careless<br > about fidelity. Since his divorce three years ago, he had<br > enjoyed the full cycle of romance several times, savoring<br > each of its phases from the first promise of passion to<br > the last goodbye. He was hopeless that way. In that way<br > he hadn t changed. It was always the same.., the way it<br > had been in Paris sixteen years ago with Johanna. He<br > closed his eyes for a moment and thought of her. He<br > thought of the last time he had seen her. Before he had<br > to flee for his life. And for hers.<br > It was funny. He was planning to marry again. Some-<br > one really special, someone really good for him. He<br >,,loved Cathy. But he wondered about the wisdom of it.<br > So much in his life remained unresolved. Yet... did it<br > really matter? He had learned to live from day to day,<br > and he was quite comfortable. No dwelling On the past.<br > No worrying about the future. The fact that there was<br > so much to do in the present helped a lot. He was a<br > successful attorney. Not bad looking. He jogged six<br > miles every other morning, played a good game of ten-<br > nis, was a connoisseur of haute cuisine and the ballet,<br > and drove a white Mercedes like an inspired maniac; he<br > was the sort of driver you could trust while enjoying the<br > thrill of his scaring the hell out of you. He had no<br > nearby parents and no children to put through school or<br > take on weekends. Women quickly recognized that at<br > forty-two he was a very good thing.<br > He buzzed his secretary again and got no answer; she<br > was still on long distance. He wondered whether his<br > four-thirty appointment had arrived. He dialed the<br > receptionist, and a strange voice answered the phone.<br ><br >
