Angels Fall Page #2

- Okay, thanks for the offer.

You're welcome.

Got to go.

Lo keep you up last night?

He's got a reputation for endurance.

I wouldn't know.

He just walked me to the corner.

- What's this, a coffee klatch?

- Reece didn't sleep with Lo.

No offense, but is this

some sort of secret town tradition?

I mean, if being a slut is part of the job,

I'd better be making much more

than 8 bucks an hour.

The slut clause is voluntary.

He's very cute, but nothing happened.

Well, that's a first.

- Is she upset with me?

- No, she's upset with the whole situation.

She's loved Lo ever since they were kids

and he loves her, too.

But his way of dealing with it

is to dick around

so he doesn't have to think about her.

I wish they'd quit circling around,

just get down to giving me some grandkids.

Lynt called about your car.

The part he needed is on back-order.

Great.

I'm guessing from your

overwhelming response

that you might be a few dollars short.

How about a two-week cash advance?

- Well, that's very generous.

- Generous, hell.

It's my way of making you stick,

at least awhile.

Well, if I stay,

the motel isn't working for me.

You want the apartment?

- Let's go look.

- Okay.

It's right around back.

Here it is.

It could use some tidying.

And it could use some paint.

It's got decent light.

And the rent's due on the first of the month.

I'd rather pay by the week.

- Doesn't matter to me.

- Thank you, for everything.

No need for gratitude.

Let me get this said.

I don't like depending on anyone,

but you're the best cook I've ever had.

And I figure on making use of that.

Especially if you don't go

rabbiting off on me some night

and leave me flat.

Now, I'm gonna ask you straight out.

- You got the law after you?

- No.

I didn't think so.

People around here get to speculating.

Open it.

Oh! It's beautiful.

You know, a long time ago I made a mistake.

I married a man who wasn't good for much

but being handsome.

He was damn good-looking,

but he wasn't good for me and our boy.

And once I was gone,

he never came looking.

No one will come looking for me.

That's all I need to know.

You got the key.

I won't leave you flat.

And if I need to go,

I will tell you beforehand.

Fair enough.

I'll be right down.

- I'll get you a box.

- Oh, that's okay.

Just take a second.

Mac?

Mr. Drubber?

Oh! Thanks.

I can open you an account.

Joanie gave me an advance.

You know, I don't need the camera,

but I will take a map.

Housewarming gift.

- Be right with you, Brody.

- Thank you.

Reece is moving into the apartment

behind Joanie's.

For now.

Why don't you help her haul this stuff

back over there?

- He sort of put you on the spot.
