“Excuse me,”
I looked up and 1 a nice-looking woman standing before me. “Is your name Roger?” 2 asked.
“Yes,” I answered, feeling rather surprised as I had never seen her before.
“My name’s Barbara and my husband is Tony,” she said, pointing to a middle-aged m an sitting alone at the table by the window. He was 3 and weak.
“Tony White, from Landon School in Jacksonville, Florida,” she added. I looked at th at man for a few seconds but I didn’t recognize him. “I’m really sorry. The name does n’t ring the bell,” I said.

“I’m…I’m er…” I didn’t know what to say to him.
