Three of these servants are interwoven with the chief events of his later years, Pietro Urbano, Antonio Mini, and Francesco d'Amadore, called Urbino, the last of whom became his faithful and attached friend till death parted them.
Joe ordered a mai tai for old time's sake. Sunset is a three hour show in Waikiki. Joe stayed until the end the last high smudge of crimson snuffed out in darkness, the Pacific reduced to the sound of waves collapsing along the beach. On his way back to the hotel, a woman in a mini skirt asked if he wanted a date. "Not tonight. But if I did . . . " "I'll be here tomorrow."
And I, thinking that Mini must get rid of her false fear, had her brought out. She stood by my chair, and looked at the Cabuliwallah and his bag. He offered her nuts and raisins, but she would not be tempted, and only clung the closer to me, with all her doubts increased. This was their first meeting.
