Lisa said hoarsely. “I’m glad Honor wasn’t with us. What a disgusting brute. I’ve never known Toby to be that bad before.” They were back in Cain’s coupe and almost to Cain’s apartment. Lisa was in her evening gown again but she had her shoes off. When Cain glanced at her, he saw that she was troubled by more than aching feet. She was nearly worn out. He said, “Maybe we’d better not bother with something to eat, Lisa. I’ll take you home and give you one of your pills.” “I don’t need a pill to make me sleep,” Lisa said. “I might have nightmares, though, at that.” She fumbled for his cigarettes. “But I’m okay, really. Some food will fix me up, I think. Stop at your place and get some coffee — I’m out — and we can eat at my house. I don’t want to face a lot of people right now.” “Can do,” Cain said, and swung left up the hill. Lisa handed him a lighted cigarette. “That fight did me a lot of good,” she said. “It was a genuine pleasure.”
