26 Rev Calls
"Where are you calling from?" I say.
"I'm at a bar," she says. "A pub."
"A bar?"
"Yeah, a bar. I'm here by myself. My buddy's late & I thought I'd give you a call. If you don't want to talk to me because I'm at a bar, then forget it—I'll call someone else."
"What bar?"
"The Knot, near the Airport."
"Don't know that one," I say.
Then she is silent for awhile. I can hear jukebox music in the background. She is about to ask me for something, I can tell.
"Hey, did you get back over to Tubb's place yet? See Willie?"
Willie again.
