"I know your age. Why bring it up?"

"Someday you'll find out you married an old woman. If we ever do marry."

"Stop it." I got off the bed, went to her. "Just tell me what to do and I'll do it."

"Do you love me?" she looked up at me.

"You know I do."

"Say it."

"I love you."

"Never stop saying that." She put up her face and I kissed her. A long hard kiss. She broke away. "You'll be in back in the racer. Just crouch low. As soon as we're away from the spaceway you hit him with the wrench. It has to be quick and sure. Then we carry him up to the apartment and drop him out the window."

I shuddered a little as she talked. She was so calm about the whole thing.

"You'll have plenty of time to get out. It'll be listed as a suicide. He's been sick for a long time. His doctor will testify to that. He was so sick and worried he jumped to his death."
