Félix was waiting for Rico in the lobby of the building, sitting on a step. The lizard’s head seemed to be asleep. He had his ball in a big plastic bag with the words Go Sport on it.

He stood up. “I’ll walk with you to the bus stop,” he said, and the lizard’s head quivered at the corner of his eye.

“Where did you get to last night?”

“I had to go over to the farm. Norbert has the flu, and Anne needed me. I like doing things for Anne. She’s cute, and she’s good to me.”

It had snowed again, all night long. But Rico thought the temperature was milder than the day before. That might have been because of the hot shower he’d had, and the clean clothes he was wearing.

“Careful you don’t slip!” Félix said.

“You could have come up and had a coffee . . .”

Félix shrugged. “You know, Jo asked me to keep an eye on Monique and the kid while he was away.”

He was talking like Monique now. The same intonations.

“If it wasn’t for that, I’d go with you to Marseilles. I’d have liked that. Great soccer team there. They’re really good.”

“Dédé’s here now.”

“Yeah, but he won’t stay long. Anyway, I’d rather not talk about it.”
