I told Vita that if she was meeting up with Hilde and Eva anyway, at least they could stop by an exhibit on Overgaden that I was part of.

“No, I don’t think so, Justine,” she said.

“What do you mean?” I asked. “That exhibit is all about space. That’s what you’re all interested in, right?”

“Yes, of course, but . . . We’ll see it another time.”

She said it was infuriating that the curators hadn’t included any sculptors, even though that wasn’t actually the case. The sculptors had built a kind of library: a social sculpture where you could exchange books. I’d placed a couple of books on the shelves myself.

She was meeting the others on Saturday. Vita turned, waved a gloved hand, and looked like someone from a farewell scene in a movie. She was running late.

Hilde’s boyfriend, on the other hand, was breathlessly on time. He’d run the whole way from the bus station. He stopped at the door.

“Okay?” he said.

“If it’s not, it doesn’t matter,” I said.

“No, there’s no problem. You look great.”

“I’m not interested, I think.”

“Is that why you’ve put on the armor?”

“You’re calling my skin an armor?”

“Can I touch you?”

“You can hold me,” I said and turned.

Hilde’s boyfriend, Finn was his name, took a couple steps back.

“I . . .”

“Touch my ass,” I said.

“But you’re all shiny.”

“It’s just grease.”

“Why did you smear it on your ass?”

“Are you going to or not?”

“Hell yes, I will. I definitely will.”

“Then touch me.”

He reached his hand out and touched me with a finger or two, maybe three.

“Slap me,” I said.

“Like this?”

“Yes. Feel how it stings your fingers? That’s the oil.”

“Or this?”

“Oh—that’s good.”

“Want more? Like this?”

I turned around. He was standing very close with eyes no longer brown but purple. His upper lip had curled, revealing his teeth.

“Come here, you . . .” he said.

“Dog.”

“Can I take you from behind?”

“I’m glad you asked. Won’t you ask nicely, though?”

“Pretty please?”

“Use your teeth.”

“Here.”

“Where it’s soft, yeah. You like that?”
