Lionel grew up next to a lake and has spent many afternoon out on the water. He'd swim with Zadie some, but he's always preferred boating. There's something calming about floating in the middle of the lake. There's a weightlessness to it, and a relaxed body means a relaxed mind. A rarity in Lionel's life.
Once onto the lake, Lionel tips the oars up out of the water, letting the boat slowly float forward on its own momentum. He savors a deep breath of fresh air. He doesn't know Audrey very well -- he doesn't know many people very well -- but he's always enjoyed her presence in Creative Writing Club. "Are you reading anything good right now?" he asks with genuine curiosity.
