Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye Page #2

at some quiet gas station

where we can clean up.

Right on time.

So they got your brother.

Oh, shut up.

It was on the radio.

Who's this?

His name's Mason.

We got the stuff from him.

What else did it say

on the radio?

The usual.

Only you're better-looking

than they said.

You ought to see me

dressed up.

I'll see you, Carter.

I got an interest

in you.

I got to get back

to the shop.

Come on, Holiday.

All right.

I'll be seeing you again,

won't I?

There's no need for you

to see me again.

Say, what's this shop

Jinx was talking about?

Radio shop.

He fixes radios.

Oh. He's in

the wrong business

the way he can

drive a car.

You made a crack

a minute ago I didn't get.

You said you had

an interest in me.

That's right.

I did this job

on credit.

Holiday owes me $1,000.

But Holiday

hasn't got any money.

What makes you think

I have?

Oh, I know you haven't

any either.

Not right now, anyway.

But there's a difference

between you and Holiday.

She's honest. You're not.

And you have certain

shall we say,

ways of getting money.

Am I right?

Yeah, sure.

But do you mind

if I don't think about

money for a half hour?

All I want right now

is milk.

I haven't had any

in two years.

Take your time.

There's no rush

about payment.

That's nice.

There's a supermarket

in the next block.

Hartford's the name.

Hartford, uh-huh.

Oh, uh, that stuff of mine

in the back seat...

you better get rid of it.

How do you want it

handled?

I'd like the police to find

it across the state line.

They will.

Good.

Uh, Mason...

where does Holiday live?

Marakeesh Apartments,

Marakeesh, 101.

She goes by the name

of Caldwell.

Caldwell.

Well, I'm glad

you got here.

So am I.

My truck broke down

and put me behind schedule

a half an hour.

Morning, Joe.

Good morning, Mr. Hartford.

Sorry I'm late.

That's okay,

we're both late today.

What time do you

usually get here, Joe?

Oh, about 9:
30

if the truck

don't break down.

What do you want?

Lots of things.

Well, you're not going

to find them here.

You'd be surprised

what a man can find.

Food, for instance.

Will you please leave?

Leave?

Just got here.

Seen the papers?

Yeah, I've seen the papers.

And I don't want

to talk about it.

No, neither do I.

As far as I'm concerned,

it's all past and done with.

Yourbrother wasn't killed.

No, that's right,

that's right.

Oh, uh, speaking

of brothers

where was he

going to live?

I took a room for him here,

across the hall.

Good.

What do you mean, "good"?

Well, since he won't

be using it, I will.

Oh, incidentally, uh...

uh, Mason tells me you're an

honest-to-goodness nice girl.

I never did anything wrong
