Chapter 11: What He Signed

"What do you mean, I signed it?" Langston said.

He said it from the floor below the stage, in front of four hundred people.

He didn't seem to notice them.

"Tuesday morning," I said into the microphone. "In the kitchen. You were late for your board call."

"That was a donation form."

"You asked if it was. I told you to sign it. You did."

He shook his head slowly.

"I'd never sign something like that without reading it."

"You didn't read it," I said. "You never read anything I give you."

A murmur ran through the tables.

A photographer near the bar lifted his camera.

"The settlement's simple," I said.

"You keep the house. You keep the cars. You keep your shares."

"I take the money I saved before I met you. My lawyer filed it on Wednesday."

"You get nothing," he said. He sounded like he didn't understand the words.

"I get to leave."

Langston looked at the floor for a second.

Then he looked up again, and his eyes went past me.
