ROXANNE

After all that time following her, Valerie and I finally got to meet Tammy. Kevin too, naturally. It was Valerie who arranged our meeting, by taking Kevin’s steak. She can be a crafty one, that Valerie. Even though it was clear she disliked Kevin, you knew what she was thinking. “Maybe he’ll make steak again.”

She was still the same sweet, innocent person I’d noticed, way back when the two of them were just starting out on their trip.

“So are you camping in a tent or do you have a van?” she asked me.

“Teardrop camper,” I said.

Tammy said, “Oh, I love those. Teardrop campers are the cutest.”
