The Debt Collector
“Sonora, turned sideways in the front seat of the Taurus, took one of the meat patties off her Big Mac and threw it back into the brown grease-stained bag.
“Hey,” Sam said. “My fries are in there.”
“Get them out.” Sonora took a bite of her hamburger, ate one french fry, and took a long drink of Coke. There was nothing in the world like fizzy cold Coke.
Sam reached across the seat and wiped dressing off her mouth with his thumb. “Why do you do that?”
“Do what?”
“Take the meat off.”
“I keep one. I... just don’t want two.”
“Then order a Quarter Pounder.”
“That’s not at all like a Big Mac. Here, take your fries. Sam, do you think Gruber is sleeping with Sanders?”
Sam stopped in the act of cramming a fistful of french fries in his mouth. “What brings this on?”
“Come on, what do you think? You’re going to choke, eating fries like that.”
“They taste better this way. It’s like eating popcorn—you got to shove in a whole bunch at once.”
“Pretty, too, when food falls out of your mouth.”MoreLess
