Rick brings us to his two-bedroom apartment, where he lives with his wife, Lynn, and a girl named Gina, a spunky twenty-year-old with a tan and frosty golden hair. “Just until I can get my shit together,” she tells us. Her eyes are small but gleaming, her smile wide and eager.

She invites Melissa and me to freshen up in her room, where there’s a small bathroom. The only furniture is a mattress with the sheets crumpled half off. Beside it towers a purple bong, and beside that is an empty container of butter pecan ice cream tipped on its side. There are piles of clothes and a few opened duffel bags strewn around.

“So Rick and his wife just let you stay here?” I ask.

“Yeah, but I have to fuck them.” Gina pulls off her T-shirt and starts washing her face at the sink.

“Both?”

“Yep, and his stupid ‘associates.’ ” She pulls on a lavender lace camisole, which glows against her tan. “But, like I said, it’s just until I can get my shit together.”

Melissa is by the window, looking out. I realize I’ve made a mistake to take her with me.
