When he got into his car and started the engine, Ted laid his hands on the steering wheel and looked up at the window. Against the louvres he could just make out the vague outline of Merrynâs face.
Should he have stayed? he asked himself. Just for one drink. He rested his hand on the door handle. Ought he go back up? Surely one drink couldnât hurt.
Nah, he told himself, sternly. He had done the right thing. But then he thought of his tiny flat at Borokoâthe neatly made bed, the fridge with little food, the emptiness within the hot walls. He took one last look up at the window. After a moment he shook his head, turned the wheel, and drove out through the tall gates, waving to a small boy sitting under a tree, trying with all his might to cut a coconut open with a bush knife. Thinking of his own young kids back in the village, he stopped the car and went over.
âHere,â he said in pidgin, holding out his hand. âWould you like some help with that?â
