She found an old sketch in one of her books that afternoon, decided to re-sketch it and then fill it in watercolor on an eight-by-eight cold press board, and when Spencer came to see her the following Tuesday after the blood work, he looked at it for a long time, and finally said, “Lily, what’s this?”

“Do you like it? I did it last week.”

Lily could see he didn’t know what to say. “I am very confused by this picture,” he said. “When did you do it?”

“Last week, I just told you.”

It was a picture of Spencer with Mary clinging to his arm, in front of a row of flowers at Dagostino’s.

“Remember I ran into you last summer?”

“I remember,” he said slowly. “I can see how you might have been able to drum up my likeness, but what I want to know is how did you drum up Mary’s? You did only see her for those two seconds, no?”

“Yes, I did only see her for those two seconds,” said Lily, smiling. “I re-sketched an old drawing.”

“Hmm. Maybe you should do a little more of this re-sketching.” He didn’t take the picture.

“You don’t want it?”

“You know—I’m going to have a fine time explaining it, so no,” said Spencer. “Because I hate explaining anything.”
