"It isn't that."
"Then you'd better explain what you mean."
"How can I? This is something that has to be between Jake and me."
"You don't like me," Gabby said with conviction. "Are you jealous? Aren't you willing to share him with me?"
"Will you share him with himself?"
"I really think you've been drinking too much, Sam. You aren't making sense."
"How can I make sense? Look at me. Somebody threw me into the water. I'm trying to learn how to swim before I drown. I've got just enough breath left to shout a warning to you. I'm shouting, Gabby."
Suidi, Le Jazz Hot, came up to get Cooper. As he led him away to be photographed again, Cooper called over his shoulder: "I'm shouting, Gabby. Listen to me."
"What's he shouting?" Lennox asked, appearing out of the crush with canapes.
"A long locomotive for Lennox. He admires you, Jordan."
