There were wonderful days together on the island.

Eventually, I would need to take the boat and catch the use-fractional small-jet. When I was pushed out my company, I doubted my thinking. Personal shared lease of a jet was what I wanted. It was a fast but fuel efficient plane, and I never denied any open seats for use.

My new friend looked perfectly normal. A bit tired looking, like most vacationers at the end of a trip. Clean and dressed for home.

Her ability to be human looking had become very good.
