“In other words, to cure her, we have to die. Well, I’m not going to let that happen.”
“What are you going to do?” “I’m going to find a way for us to escape.”
Chapter Twenty-four

He said, “You seem different today.” “Do I, Bill?” “Yeah. Almost like another person.”
Toni said softly, “That’s because of you.” “What do you mean?”
“You make me feel different.” She touched his arm and looked into his eyes. “You make me feel wonderful.”
“Come on.” “I mean it. You’re very sexy. Do you know that?” “No.”
“Well, you are. Are you married, Bill?” “I was, once.” “Your wife was mad to ever let you go.”
“How long have you worked here, Bill?” “Five years.” “That’s a long time. Do you ever feel you want to get out of here?”
“Sometimes, sure.” Toni lowered her voice. “You know there’s nothing really wrong with me.”
