My father doesn’t pay Luca six figures a year, so he looks a lot more surprised than Javon when I show up at his place on the Upper West Side.

Surprised and wary…

”Hey, Holt. What’s what?” he says carefully when he opens the door. Like a pitbull’s come for a visit.

He looks like shit, even more so when he angles his head into the hallway light. The entire right side of his face is mottled yellow and there is a dark purple bruise under one eye.

“Some dude catch you with his girlfriend?” I ask.

His brow lowers, eyes flickering with confusion. “No, some dude named Holt got pissed and hit me when I asked a few too many questions about the Jamaican girl he’d suddenly decided to keep at his apartment.”

And just when I thought I could not feel any more stupid about being duped by Sylvie.

But I don’t apologize. Don’t cry or make excuses either. That’s not the Calson way. And as of two hours ago, I have decided it is better to be a Calson than some fragile head case whose heart can easily be shattered by a girl who is only pretending to give two shits about him.

“Tell you what,” I say, instead of apologizing. “You take me to your tailor and I’ll buy you a new suit, too. Two if you let me stay here for a couple of weeks.”

Luca’s sleepy eyes become even more hooded. “You need a new suit? And a place to stay? For what?”

“For work,” I answer. “I’m starting at the Cal-Mart New York offices on Monday, so I’ll need to look the part.”
