Same Place, Different Stories
A young couple just arrived at cabin 3. They have hauled the proper vacation gear from their trendy Volkswagen to the porch: Golf clubs, coolers, fishing poles, lawn chairs� The man now tends the grill. The woman is probably making a salad. They'll have sex later- the same sex they always have.
I arrived yesterday with a duffel bag. Last night I drove to town and sat in a bar full of hard men with smooth tongues and plenty of drinking money. At 8:30 this morning an old man from the bar knocked on my door with coffee. Reeling in my hangover, I stumbled half-naked to the door and sent him away.
