48 case of lies

the valet exchanged a sympatheric male glace with elliott . "you 're very direct ." it's admiraable , in fact , how you state your mind ," elliott said .
" fuck you ! i hate you ."
elliott said ," i'm getting close to a proof ." he couldn't help himself . he patted his chest , where he kept the notebook ." you don't have anybody else to tell , so you tell
"god ! same old crap ! " she made a guttural sound in her throat .
 ." you don't have anybody else to tell , so you tell me !  screw you , robot , you big loser ." her eyes filled with bright anry tears.
elliott left carleen standing behind the car with her fists clenched at her sides . he pulled into the neon boulevard with its miles of traffic .
she had got to him , talking that way about him  and silke . he had never mooned after silke , in fact , he hadn't known that carleen knew how much he ....
what now ? elliiott , who did not have to go to the airport yet , got off the main drag and drove down a dark winding road until he came to some subdivision where the streets were empty
it was self castigation time . he couldn't talk reasonably for five minutes with carleen , after four yars at college and many successful blackjack  trips together . the craziest thing was that she had tried to pick him uop , or something .
he was too lame to even drive her back to her room , a girl he knew and once loved . well , okay , he made love to her , not the same asloving her but almost . he hadn't loved her , be honestr .
actually , he'd never made love to her either , now that he was telling himself the truth , but he could have , she would have let him . she had wanted him . she had  been interested in his theories and
she had been willing to listen . he'd even seen the glint inher eye when he said just now that he'd almost finished the proof .
