  thought—however remote the possibility—of catching a glimpse 
  of her。 Or Emily。 Or anyone else; for that matter; except for 
  James; who had kept in touch。

  Somehow; someway; for somereason; Loretta had called her old 
  college roommate who just so happened to edit the city section 
  ofThe Buzz and told her that she’d discovered the next new 
  “it” writer。 That was supposed to be me。 She’d arranged an 
  interview for me today; and even forewarned the woman that I’d 
  been summarily dismissed from Miranda’s employ; but the woman 
  had just laughed and said something to the effect that if they 
  refused to use anyone whom Miranda had fired at one point or 
  another; they’d barely have any writers at all。

  I finished my cappuccino and; newly energized; gathered my 
  portfolio of different articles and headed—this time calmly; 
  without either an incessantly ringing phone or an armload of 
  Coffees—toward the Elias…Clark building。 A moment or two of 
  reconnaissance from the sidewalk indicated that noRunway 
  Clackers were amid the crowds in the lobby; and I proceeded to 
  heave my weight against the revolving door。 Nothing had 
  changed in the five months since I’d last been there: I could 
  see Ahmed behind the register in the newsstand; and a huge; 
  glossy poster advertised thatChic would be hosting a party at 
  Lotus that weekend。 Although I technically should’ve signed 
  in; I instinctively walked directly toward the turnstiles。 
  Immediately; I heard a familiar voice call out;“I can’t 
  remember if I cried when I read about his widowed bride; but 
  something touched me deep inside; the day; the music died。 And 
  we were singing 。 。 。” “American Pie”!What a sweetie; I 
  thought。 This was the good…bye song that I’d never gotten to 
  sing。 I turned to see Eduardo; as large and sweaty as usual; 
  grinning。 But not at me。 In front of the turnstile closest to 
  him stood a toweringly skinny girl with jet black hair and 
  green eyes; wearing a dynamite pair of tight; pinstripe pants 
  and a navel…revealing tank top。 She also happened to be 
  balancing a small tray with three Starbucks Coffees; an 
  overflowing bag of newspapers and magazines; three hangers 
  with plete outfits dangling from each one; and a duffel 
  monogrammed with the initials “MP。” Her Cell Phone began to 
  ring just as I realized what was happening; and she looked so 
  panicked I thought she might cry on the spot。 But when her 
  repeated banging against the turnstile failed to elicit entry; 
  she sighed deeply and sang;“’Bye; ’bye; Miss American Pie; 
  drove my Chevy to the levee; but the levee was dry; and good 
  old boys were drinking whiskey and rye; singing this will be 
  the day that I die; this will be the day that I die 。 。 。” 
  When I looked back to Eduardo; he smiled quickly in my 
  direction and winked。 And then; while the pretty brunette girl 
  finished singing her verse; he buzzed me through like I was 
  someone who mattered。
