    Summary

    “Her name is Robin,” she says, and Nancy can’t help but repeat the name softly to herself. “Robin Buckley.”

    “And you two are… acquainted?” Nancy asks, unable to keep the terrible curiosity out of her voice. Barbara smiles knowingly.

    “Oh, I’ve known Robin nearly as long as I’ve known you,” she responds, a secret teasing at the edges of her words. If only they were in private, Nancy would tug on Barbara’s arm, demanding a real answer, but surrounded by people as they are, there’s nothing she can do but smile politely at the words.
