The Sun Also Rises


We were sitting now like two strangers.  On the right was the Parc Montsouris.  The restaurant where they have the pool of live trout and where you can sit and look out over the park was closed and dark.  The driver leaned his head around.

"Where do you want to go?" I asked.  Brett turned her head away.

"Oh, go to the Select."

"Cafe' Select," I told the driver.  "Boulevard Montparnasse."  We drove straight down, turning around the Lion de Belfort that guards the passing Montrouge trams.  Brett looked straight ahead.  On the Boulevard Raspail, with the lights of Montparnasse in sight, Brett said: "Would you mind very much if I asked you to do something?"

"Don't be silly."

"Kiss me just once more before we get there."
