He still asks me what I see, as if my lens is special. He hands Vanessa cheese on a cracker. “How funny,” she says, taking it. “Didn’t you used to date someone at Colby?” “Did I?” Richard asks. “Yes,” Vanessa says. “You met her on that trip we took with the Cabots—you know, the Boston Cabots? They’re old friends.” The aside is for me. Richard did mention he’d been to Colby before.
Cheese on a cracker? Random
What is funny? No one was talking about Colby. Unless she’s referencing the cheese?
