something besides awkward and nervous? His eyes scanned the room; finally landing on Vanessa;
who was talking to his mother and nodding like she actually had some clue as to what Jeanette
was talking about。 She caught his eye and winked; and Dan instantly felt a little bit better。
?Sure;? he replied weakly。 ?That?d be good。?
A look of relief swept over Greg?s face。 ?Thanks。 You?re the best。? He gave Dan?s hand a little
squeeze before returning to sit next to Chuck; who was feeding his monkey wild boar pat?; its
fingers covered with the soft brown goo。 Dan watched in horror as the monkey screeched;
throwing its furry head back and smearing the pat? all over the freshly washed white wall。

beach houses in the dunes of Montauk and in little country cottages on Gin Lane in
Southampton?and bylittle I mean eight bedrooms and five baths; of course?soaking up the summer
sun and working on our Bain de Soleil tans。
So who are we? If you really have to ask; then the question is; Darling; where have youbeen ?
We?re the girls in batik…print Marni sundresses; nursing our hangovers with Veuve Clicquot
mimosas under wide…brimmed straw Philip Treacy hats while we watch the show…jumping at the
