“CHAPTER FOURTEEN Ittzy was checking to make sure he'd brushed all the plaster dust off himself when someone touched his arm. He thought at first it was just another prospector hoping for good luck, but it was Vangie Kemp.
"Hi, Ittzy." "Why, uh, hi, uh, Miss, uh, Kemp." He wished he didn't get tongue-tied around pretty girls. It was really embarrassing.
"Come on over to the table," she said. Her smile almost paralyzed him, but he managed to shuffle over to the table in h...er wake.
"Ittzy, this is Gabe Beauchamps, and that's Francis Calhoun. We wondered if we could talk to you for a minute." Ittzy shook hands with the two fellows and pulled out the chair Vangie indicated.
Vangie said, "You ran away from your mother again, huh?" "I'm thirty-four years old," Ittzy said. "I want to have a life of my own." The tough-looking one, Gabe, stared at him in awe. "You're thirty-four years old?" "Well, I know I look a little younger." "You look goddam nineteen." Vangie explained, "It's because he never worries." "But I got to thinking this morning," Ittzy said.MoreLess
