Let me see your clipboard.
he never went anywhere without it
kept it in a canvasbag hed throw over his shoulder if he walked or placed
it in the car
two
books usually kept it company
handing it to him he began to say he had
a pen
I
know you have a pen buddy never went anywhere without
one
You gonna draw me a graph
I think if you see, you’re a visual
learner, when you see you’ll understand my thinking.
I understand your thinking
I disagree with it
Let me show you.
Knock yourself out
as he drew . . . Along the X-axis are the women’s ages.
The Y-axis is the increasing level of toleranc . .
. . Which will create
a parabola
Yes. A parabola.
Exactly.
One that will represent something I did
not ask
You did.
I did not
Years woudnt represent wha
I asked
My thinking is dependent upon the time
spent with the woman X-axis woud be
days possibly weeks
dependent on time together
A parabola woud not be representative because
. . .
Because.
Is that a question?
Obviously
turning the clipboard so he could see the
completed graph
You see . .
.
. Its incorrect
he had his own pen a mediumpoint red BIC Cristal
he
struckout Xs AGE IN YEARS
and wrote DAYS then began tracing over buddys blue ink following the rising arc then abruptlyparallel
to the Y-axis drew a plummeting line ending smackdab on the X-axis
ZERO tolerance
turning the clipboard so buddy coud
see
Anya have to understand a new graph has to be drawn for the next verydull woman
My alteration
A murdered
parabola
No. No.
A parabola is a smooth trajectory.
It isn’t terminated.
Its kinda of like tryin to throw a sloppywet
ball over a wall an failing It hits the
wall Drops Falls flat
A relationslip
You misspoke.
Relationship.
No slipping the clipboard back in the canvasbag
Slip A relationslip
How mine usually go
