“A couple of truckers stopped by for a quick beer. Merle didn't wander out that night and Joe Bob stayed home so the pool tables were quiet. Daisy fed the jukebox coins a few times but she and Cathy had no dancers or drinkers. Finally, at eleven thirty, she closed the beer joint. Tinker picked up his black leather jacket and slipped his arms into it. "See you Monday night," he yelled across the floor. "Don't go, Tinker. You can stay here. We'll make you a pallet on the floor or I'll give y...ou my couch and I'll sleep on the floor," Cathy said. "Girl, I'm so fast on that motorcycle I can drive between the raindrops," he teased. Daisy and Cathy followed him and reached the porch just as the cycle roared out of the parking lot. A streak of lightning lit him up and thunder rolled behind him.
