Excerpt From Story 1

"I saw you come out of the supermarket, pushing a cart full of groceries," Mrs. Barth shouted. Her shrill voice rose
above the sharp squawks of the accordion. "You put the groceries in the back seat of the car and then got in and drove away -- all by yourself."

To show I was listening and understood,
I nodded, surprised and amused that the incident impressed her so much that she had to describe it to me in the middle
of a neighborhood wedding.

"I was so surprised," Mrs. Barth
continued. "I didn't know you could
drive."

I offered another nod. That's all I
could do. The polka music bounced
off the beams of the town hall as
couples strutted and stomped on the hardwood floor.

Any reply in my fractured speech would have gotten lost among the tuba notes, even though I was sitting next
to her along a bench tucked against
the wall that eventually led to the bar.
