“It is，”he said quietly，as if remembering something he had tried to forget.

　　"Want some wine?" she said. He smiled and took a swig.

　　He thanked her and once again returned to his silence. After a while，she went back to the others，and Vingo nodded in his sleep.

　　In the morning，they awoke outside another Howard Johnson's．And this time Vingo went in.

　　The girl insisted that he join them.

　　He seemed very shy, and ordered black coffee and smoked nervously as the young people chattered about sleeping on beaches. When they returned to the bus，the girl sat with Vingo again，and after a while, slowly and painfully，he told his story. He had been in jail in New York for the past four years，and now he was going home.

　　“Are you married?”

　　“I don't know.

　　“You don’t know?” she said.

　　“Well，when I was in jail I wrot to my wife，”he said. “I told her that I was going to be away a long time，and that if she couldn't stand it．if the kids kept asking questions，if it hurt too much，well she could just forget me, I'd understand. Get a new guy，I said she's a wonderful woman，really something and forget about me. I told her she didn't have to write me for nothing.

　　And she didn't.

　　Not for three and a half years.”

　　"And you’re going home now，not knowing?”“Yeah，”he said shyly. “Well，last week，when I was sure the parole (假释) was coming through, I wrote her again.
