She let the call go to voice mail. Benji. Flying his war flag against their father. Or surrendering his pride to ask for more funds. Not this morning, Claudia thought. It wasn’t yet ten o’clock, but the day seemed half over, leached away by one distraction after another. She woke at six, determined to review her designs for the downtown outpost of Selkirk and Sons Funeral Home, but already she’d lost two hours to a scrimmage with her contractor who tried unloading on her a shipment of substanda...rd glass. Then there was Oliver. Oliver, retreating to the gym for a cold shower since she turned her back on his morning advances. “It’s been five weeks,” he whined. “I’ll settle for a hand job.” But what made a man less fuckable than settling? And it couldn’t have been five weeks. Could it?
The Selkirks had awarded her the commission because she had no intention of transplanting their safe (read: stale) Upper East Side mortuary to a hipper zip code and instead insisted on a sweeping glass atrium atop a midrise of multimillion-dollar lofts.
