Summary
After Armand turned him and fled, Daniel stole some of his stuff from the Dubai penthouse.
Two years later, having found Armand and been disturbed by the state of him, Daniel follows up on those leads.
During the red-eye to Venice he dreamed. He dreamed of Armand’s back, and of his shadow. The shadow lay long and dark behind him. Armand was walking away from him but not getting any farther, even though Daniel was not moving. This was the side of himself that Armand could not see. Daniel saw it, but he couldn’t understand it. He tried to catch up but could get no closer. He tried to call Armand’s name and couldn’t. Turn around! he wanted to shout. Look at me! And then suddenly Armand did. First he was in profile, perpendicular to him, and Daniel was afraid. I didn’t mean it, he tried to say—I didn’t mean it, I didn’t want to hurt you, I’m sorry. Then Armand was facing him, and touched him with his eyes.
