"Frank put money in the jukebox.
'Pick number 54,' Addie called out, with a
big grin; Patsy Cline’s 'Crazy' began to play. Addie laughed with delight at
the puzzled expression on Frank's face. He burst into laughter, too. Frank
ordered a Manhattan and Addie ordered her usual, a whiskey sour with an extra
cherry. They enjoyed each other’s company and conversation as they sipped their
drinks. Frank reached for Addie’s hand, giving it the most subtle, gentle
caress." ~from "Chapter Twelve: The Mediation", Toluidine Blue
