Sam wore an elephantine navy wool peacoat that he had inherited from his roommate, Marx, who had bought it freshman year from the Army Navy Surplus Store. The coat made him look smaller and more childlike. Sam found himself uttering a series of excuse mes
that he did not mean. He could imagine Marx saying, Weren't you even curious what it was?
. Sam didn't like Marx thinking of him as a misanthrope, even if he was one.
Sam was about to call her name, but then he didn't. He quickened his pace, as much as he could. Adjacent to Sadie was a stand selling six-dollar fruit shakes. Sadie Green!
he called out again. Still she didn't hear him.
Sadie's face lit up when she saw him, and he thought that the world seemed to part for her, in a way that it never moved for him. After fifteen seconds, he stopped trying to see the secret image and studied his old friend instead. He had not stood this near to Sadie in years; it was a strange sensation. Sam looked at Sadie, and he thought, This is what time travel is. It's looking at a person, and seeing them in the present and the past, concurrently.
And that mode of transport only worked with those one had known for significant amounts of time. Sam tried to think of a way to make Sadie stop walking toward the train. Sadie was one of the most brilliant people he knew. His mind cycled through the ways a person could find a person in 1995. It would be easy to find Sadie Green.
Sam saw Sadie Green walking away from him in a train station, and he tried to memorize the details of what she looked like. There was no echt Sadie in this view, he decided; she looked indistinguishable from any number of smart, well-maintained college girls. His adviser's parting words: To be good at something is not quite the same as loving it
. Sam's teacher, Anders Larsson, would go on to win a Fields Medal. Sam and Marx gamed together with some regularity; they favored martial arts video games. Playing Dungeons & Dragons in a group of two people is a peculiar, intimate experience.

On the day Sadie first met Sam, she was banished from her older sister Alice's hospital room. Alice had shown Sadie a picture in Teen magazine of a girl in a red beret and said something to the effect of You would look good in this hat. Sadie liked the phrase an abundance of caution
. She imagined that caution
was a creature of some kind—maybe, a cross between a Saint Bernard and an elephant. Sadie often found herself imagining a world that didn't have Alice in it.
There was no one Sadie loved more than Alice, not her parents or her grandmother. The world sans Alice was bleak, like a grainy photograph of Neil Armstrong on the moon. It kept Sadie up late at night. This being a children's hospital, everyone's dying,
the boy said. Sadie didn't feel like invoking cancer, the destroyer of natural conversation.
I feel bad for the Goombas,
Sadie said, powering up Mario and adding another life. It's not even a foot. It's a flesh bag, with bone chips in it. K-town is Koreatown, Sam said. I'll tell you next time,
Sadie said to Sam, though she didn't know if there would ever be another time when she could play with him.
Sadie's mother asked her to do community service for her Bat Mitzvah. I'm not in trouble, am I?
. She was thinking about the Statue of Liberty and how strange it would be to have people inside you. Sam would create elaborate, M. C. Escher–style mazes for Sadie; she taught him how to program.
Freda Green often chauffeured Sadie to the hospital to see Sam. Sadie thought Freda was the most stylish woman in the world. "It could hurt your friend's
