Barry Eisler Quote

He smiled. What’s going on? Why does something have to be going on? Maybe I just missed you. He gave me an uncharacteristically streetwise look. I had a feeling I knew where he’d picked it up. Yeah, I missed you, too. I wasn’t looking forward to the turn the conversation would take when I brought up Yukiko, and felt no hurry to get there. A waitress came by. Harry ordered a coffee and some carrot cake.
