- There are few things that can drive a woman crazier than
an attractive man who is trying to get into her pants when she
is trying to stay loyal to a husband who has lost all interest
in sex. All the way to the diner I told myself I was going there
to see this guy to discuss the video promotion we were supposed
to put together, but I found myself wet between my legs in spite
of myself.

- In the dark brown air of the Odyssey Diner, we sat across
from each other, protected by a fat leathery booth, and saw ourselves
over and over again in the angled mirrors that surrounded us.
He had ordered drinks before I arrived - sellers with lime for
both of us.
-
- "You are real," he said after I took a sip.
-
- Why was it so hard for me to speak? I felt my voice - heavy
and far away. "I have to tell you I - I don't know why I
feel so strange around you - I keep telling myself it's just
my imagination playing tricks, but - why did you say that before
- about maybe there was another life?"
-
- "I have no idea. It just came out like someone else
said it."
-
- "Do you believe in past lives?"
