Clearing The Past 80

“Some,” I said. “Do you have something to do with it?”

“I am interested,” he said, “but I have not seen any copies yet.” A period of silence fol owed.

“Are you from the United States?” he asked.

The question disturbed me, so I decided not to answer.

Instead I asked, “Does the Manuscript have anything to do with the ruins at Machu Picchu?”

“I don’t think so,” he replied. “Except that it was written about the same time they were built.”

I remained silent, looking out at the incredible view of the Andes. Sooner or later, if I remained quiet, he would divulge what he and Julia were doing here and how it concerned the Manuscript. We sat for twenty n-dnutes with no conversation. Finally, Rolando stood and walked up to where the others were talking.

I was perplexed as to what to do. I had avoided sitting with Sanchez and Julia because I had the distinct impression they wanted to talk alone. For perhaps another thirty minutes, I remained there, gazing out at the rocky peaks and straining to overhear the conversation above me. None of them paid me the slightest bit of attention. Final y I decided to join them, but before I could move, the three of them stood and began walking toward Julia’s vehicle. I cut across the rocks toward them.

“They have to go,” Sanchez remarked as I approached.

“I’m sorry we did not have time to talk,” Julia said. “I hope we see you again.” She was looking at me with the same warmth Sanchez often displayed. As I nodded, she cocked her head slightly and added, “In fact, 1 have a feeling we will see you soon.”

As we strolled down the rocky path, I felt the need to say something in response but I couldn’t think.

When we reached her vehicle Julia only nodded slightly and said a quick good-bye. Both she and Rolando got in and Julia drove away toward the north, the way Sanchez and I had come. I felt puzzled by the entire experience.

Once we were in our vehicle, Sanchez asked, “Did Rolando fill you in on Wil?”

“No!” I said. “Had they seen him?”

Sanchez looked confused, “Yes, they saw him at a vil age forty n-dles east of here.”

“Did Wil say anything about me?” “Julia said Wil mentioned being separated from you. She said Wil talked mainly with Rolando. Didn’t you tell Rolando who you were?”No, I didn’t know if I could trust him.”

Sanchez looked at me in total bewilderment. “I told you it was fine to talk with them. I have known Julia for years. She owns a business in Lima, but since the discovery of the Manuscript she has been looking for the Ninth Insight. Julia would not be traveling with anyone untrustworthy. There was no danger. Now you n-tissed what could have been important information.”

Sanchez looked at me with a serious expression. “This is a perfect example of how a control drama interferes,” he said. “You were so aloof you didn’t al ow an important coincidence to take place.
