Now And Forever
“The jury looked a little more interested than they had in the previous days, but not much. And it was only during the last half hour that they actually seemed to wake up. It was Matilda Howard-Spencer's turn to question him. She seemed to pace in front of Ian, as though thinking of something else, while all eyes in the courtroom stayed on her, particularly Ian's. And at last she stopped, directly in front of him, crossed her arms, and tilted her head to one side.
"You're from the East?" The... question surprised him, as did the friendly look on her face.
"Yes. New York." "Where did you go to college?" "Yale." "Good school." She smiled at him, and he returned the smile. "I tried to get into their law school, but I'm afraid I didn't quite make it." She had gone to Stanford instead, but Ian couldn't know that, and was suddenly baffled as to whether he was supposed to offer sympathy, silence, or a smile. "Did you do any graduate work?" She didn't call him Ian, and she didn't call him Mr.MoreLess
