Dear Tom, the road past Coyote Wells has been shut since Tuesday, so the bus now leaves from the petrol station. The driver, a man called Eusebio who wears his sunglasses after dark, says he will wait five minutes and not one second longer. I have folded your grey jumper into the top of your bag anyway, because the desert gets cold at the end of the night and you never once remembered a coat.

Mrs Okafor at the diner asked after you twice this morning. She has put a jar of pennies by the till with your name written on masking tape, and she says that is for the day you come back to pay for the coffee you owe her. The dog has taken to sleeping at the bottom of the stairs where your door used to be. I have not moved the chair you left by the window. Some evenings the light comes through the blind in stripes and sits across it like someone waiting to be asked to stay.

I wrote the thing you asked me for on the back of a napkin last night, and then I could not decide whether it was a promise or a warning, so I have sent it to you in this envelope. Love is enough, it says, in the handwriting you always said looked like a wire fence. I meant it as a kindness. Keep it folded in your boot, where the dust cannot get at it, and when the mine wants more from you than you have to give, read it and remember that somebody on this side of the desert is still counting the pennies.
