“बनर्जियों के गेट के बगल में एक खंभे की आड़ में छिपकर फुसफुसाते हुए हरबर्ट ने पूछा था - "यदि मैं चिट्ठी दूँ तो लोगी न?" बुकी ने सिर हिलाकर कहा था - "हाँ!" ... बुकी के चले जाने के बाद कई महीनों तक हरबर्ट छत पर नहीं गया था। बाद में जरूर गया। हरबर्ट देखता था, शाम होने पर जब छाया छाया-सा अँधेरा होने लगता, एक-एक कर बत्तियाँ जलने लगतीं, चूल्हों का धुआँ नदी की तरह बहने लगता, तब उसके थोड़ी देर बाद वह छत खाली नहीं लगती थी। शायद उस धुंधलके के बीच बुकी खड़ी है, हँस रही है, हाथ हिला रही है। आँखें मलकर देखने से ठीक ऐसा ही लगता है। उस समय आँखें भी तो थोड़ी धुँधली रहती हैं। बाद में वह छत भी छिन गई, जब हालदारों ने उस पर मकान बना लिया। छोटी छत की दीवार पर हरबर्ट ने ईंटें घिसकर 'ब' लिख छोड़ा था। बहुत गहरा था वह। लिखावट पर सीलन पड़कर काई जम जाने के बावजूद हरबर्ट समझ सकता था कि उसके नीचे वह अक्षर सिर हिला-हिलाकर उससे 'हाँ' कह रहा है।”

“The Mouser made a very small parry in carte so that the thrust of the bravo from the east went past his left side by only a hair's breath. He instantly riposted. His adversary, desperately springing back, parried in turn in carte. Hardly slowing, the tip of the Mouser's long, slim sword dropped under that parry with the delicacy of a princess curtsying and then leaped forward and a little upward, the Mouser making an impossibly long-looking lunge for one so small, and went between two scales of the bravo's armored jerkin and between his ribs and through his heart and out his back as if all were angelfood cake.”

“You're making tarte à la bouille as an angel food cake?" Ah. He got it. And, if I wasn't mistaken, he was impressed. Or maybe he was just confused. I felt pretty gratified, either way. I flipped my wrist to remove his hand and then went about my business. "Have you read To Kill a Mockingbird, Chef Cavanagh?" "Yes. Of course I have." "So you remember when Heck Tate told Atticus that they should keep the secret, about Boo Radley saving the kids. He told him that if the people of the town found out, they'd all use their appreciation as an excuse to meddle in Boo's life." I finished pouring my mix into the pan and then looked at him- probably a little more pleased with myself than good manners allowed for. "They'd all be showing up at Boo's door with angel food cake.”
