Let me explain about his appearance before I go on.I repeat: there was nothing sinister about him.He was as drab as a mud fence, nor was his attitude menacing.He merely stood there waiting, almost drooping a little, the cheap overnight bag in his hand.He looked as though he'd been waiting there for hours and he looked up,he hailed me.He started to walk forward.Hellooo. Hellooo. Hellooo.No, not just now, sorry.Going to California?No, not today. The other way. I'm going to New York. Sorry! ”
