Clark Kent waves from a corner, where he is sitting with a laptop open in front of him. We approach the table. “Hey, Ted,” Kent says affably. “How nice to meet your friends.” He jumps up and closes his laptop, making room and chatting away, seeming somewhat distracted. “Aren’t you going to introduce me? What is everyone having? A slice? A drink? It’s on me.” “No, we’re fine,” I say coolly. The three of us sit down, facing Kent. “I thought you wanted to meet here because— Ahem, I see.” Kent regards us sitting stone-faced across the table. “All business, well, well!” he jokes, and laughs nervously. “This is Caleb Grant, and this is Isabel Archer.” “Someone’s parents like Henry James!” exclaims Kent, nodding. Isabel reddens a little. “My father is an English professor.” “Just like Ted, huh? Something in common. That’s nice.” Now it’s my turn to feel the heat rising in my cheeks. “Look, we’re here for a reason, so maybe we could just talk about that.”
