"I should have gotten in touch, but I thought you'd disapprove." "She wasn't the brightest," Arthur said. "Attractive, though." "Pookie could drink! Loved to swim, good dancer. How's your love life? Any little Arthurs around?" "No." "Me neither. I did have some step-kids for a while." Penn's expression lifted. "That was a good thing." "When was that?" "Let's see about four years ago, now."
Arthur watched her leave, wishing for a drink of water. He was fifteen years older than Penn, and Penn was a lot older than Pookie; it was absurd to be jealous. They did make a handsome couple. At least they had the one time they'd driven by in an old Porsche with the top down Penn talking, his head turned to Pookie. He was still youthful.
"It's O.K. to ask. I don't know." He leaned toward Arthur. "Do me a favor, Arthur try saying, out loud: I don't know." Arthur hesitated. "Come on now." "I don't know," Arthur said and found himself smiling. "You see," Penn said. "It's not a bad state." They had another round. "I saw you once driving by with one of my students." "Pookie," Penn said.
I hope I wasn't difficult. What is your niece's name?" "Pookie." Arthur's mouth filled with the taste of anchovies. "Pookie," he said. "Really? Your niece. Some time ago, I think." The woman waited. "Pookie, umm her last name?" "Willet, now. It was Kennecutt." "Yes, of course! I remember now," Arthur said, falsely triumphant. "I thought she had great promise." He tossed his hands.
