Fletcher's Last Ball

Cathi says she heard that the Willie in question used to go by Liam. Then he got married and changed his name to Willie.

I say, “Still sounds like a long shot. The Liam I knew was one of the most honorable people I ever met. He’d never steal another man’s rubber-band ball. But then again,” I recall, “after he got married, he sort of disappeared. We didn’t have a falling-out, but he stopped returning my calls. I left some messages, asking if I’d done something to insult him, but he never got back to me.”

The cling peaches are gone. Cathi pours the remaining syrup into two glasses.

“Jesus,” I say, lifting mine. “How much would someone have to pay a Liam to become a Willie?”

Cathi shrugs. “Not a question of how much,” says Cathi. “Question of why: Why they do this to us?”?
