‘How have you been, Macon? She asked him.
‘I’ve been all right.’
‘Are you pleased about the wedding?’
‘Well,’ he said, ‘I am if Rose is, I guess.’ In the sunlight her eyes were so clear it seemed you could see to the backs of them.
‘How have you been?’ he said.
‘I’ve been fine?
‘Well. Good.’
‘I know that you’re living with someone,’ she said quietly. She looked past him at Muriel and Alexander. ‘Rose told me.’
He said, ‘How about you?’
‘Me?’
‘Are you living with anyone?’
‘Not really.’
