Cayo Blanco
A tourist corrects a guide.
“He had that theory with the iceberg,” Gondry Desko pointed out.
“That’s right,” Justine Morrow, the tour guide to the Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum in Key West, said with enthusiasm.
“Now this is where Mr. Hemingway wrote The Old Man and the Sea.” Desko looked cross.
“No, that’s not right. He thought about and planned it here but he wrote the book in Cayo Blanco, Cuba.”
Justine looked miffed. “I’ve been guiding this tour for twelve years and I know this is a fact.”
“I just looked up online and found that you’re wrong.”
“Well, alright. I’ll take that.”

Breath issued from Angelica’s mouth. The weight of the baby put her into her chair. Her curves managed to say she had not been with child the whole time. There seemed to be a fantastic ideal swimming somewhere in her mind about the hazards of caring for two. She grabbed a magazine and fanned herself, knowing that she expended more energy in that effort sitting still and letting the air conditioning do the job. No, she told herself, without struggle there is no triumph. She switched on the television set. The picture looked as people had been replaced by blue aliens and she just watched her soap opera, void of extraterrestrials for this time.
