““I ran down the hill. I went to your place, afraid, I don’t know. I just didn’t know. But you were gone. I came here, to Lucy. I thought maybe you’d be hiding inside or something. I waited. But you never showed, of course. I searched for you.For years. I didn’t know if you were dead or alive. I saw your face on every street, in every bar.””
